Nado traction aids are manufactured in Canada using sturdy 4.8 mm (3/16 in.) steel, offering superior strength, stability, and durability compared to mass-produced models.
4.8 mm (3/16 in.) steel traction aids: proven strength
The thickness of the metal reduces the risk of twisting or warping—a common problem with thinner traction aids.
Reinforced hinges: a more durable traction aid
Designed to maintain their alignment after repeated use, they make storage easier and extend the life of the product.
Foldable and ergonomic design
Easy to store in the trunk, under a seat, or in a vehicle compartment.
Weather-resistant paint
Long-lasting protection against chipping and corrosion.
Increased stability during use
The rigidity of thick steel limits slippage and reduces the risk of rear kickback, a problem often reported with more flexible products.
Tested in real-world conditions
Our prototypes have been put to the test in a variety of conditions typical of Canadian winters.
