Foss® Ice Tip Grip — Five-Prong Cane & Crutch Attachment — 1 Each
The Foss® Ice Tip Grip is a winter traction attachment designed to clamp onto compatible walking canes and crutches. Its five-prong design provides additional contact with snow and ice, while the attachment can be positioned out of the way when the mobility aid is used indoors.
Verified Product: Med Supplies lists this product as Foss Ice Tip Grip Five Prong Clamps to Crutches & Canes x1, supplied as 1 each. The product is manufactured by M.A. Foss Distributors Ltd. and is intended as a clamp-on ice-grip accessory for compatible canes and crutches. Exact shaft-size compatibility should be confirmed before installation.
Five-Prong Grip
Five traction prongs are designed to bite into snow and ice for improved contact.
Clamp-On Design
Attaches directly to compatible cane and crutch shafts without replacing the original rubber tip.
1 Each
Single ice-tip attachment for individual cane or crutch use.
Winter Mobility
Designed for additional traction on snow and icy outdoor surfaces.
Why Choose the Foss® Ice Tip Grip?
The Foss Ice Tip Grip provides an additional traction option for people who use a cane or crutch during winter conditions. The five-prong configuration is designed to engage snow and ice rather than relying solely on a conventional rubber tip.
Because the device clamps onto the cane or crutch, it can be installed as a seasonal accessory while allowing the original mobility aid to remain otherwise unchanged. The exact clamp fit must match the shaft diameter and shape of the cane or crutch.

Med Supplies does not publish a verified shaft-diameter specification for this Foss attachment in the indexed listing. Measure the cane or crutch shaft and confirm fit before ordering.
Winter Use
The five-prong mechanism is intended for outdoor winter conditions where snow or ice is present. On clean indoor flooring, the prongs can damage floors and may create an unstable contact point.
Where the attachment has an approved flip-up or retracted position, move the traction mechanism out of contact with the floor before entering a building. Follow the manufacturer's intended operating method.
Usage and Safety Information
Confirm that the ice tip fits the cane or crutch securely before use. The clamp should be firmly attached and must not slide, rotate excessively or interfere with the original tip.
Use the five-prong grip only on surfaces appropriate for the attachment. Do not use exposed ice prongs on indoor flooring, smooth hard surfaces or other areas where they can slip or damage the surface.
Snow and ice can remain hazardous even with an ice-grip attachment. Walk slowly, use the cane or crutches as instructed and consider additional assistance when conditions are severe.
Inspect the clamp, screws, prongs and attachment points regularly. Do not use the product if a prong is bent, loose or damaged, or if the clamp cannot be secured firmly.
