STEEL PRICES RISE:
The carbon steel market is poised to grow by 699.35 MT during 2020-2024 progressing at a CAGR of almost 8% during the forecast period." (Source: Business Wire)
This is what we are seeing all across the industry; day after day new emails from vendor's telling us that their prices are rising, every order we make for materials needs to be revised because the last price is no longer valid, and for good reason. The cost of steel materials has been steadily increasing throughout 2020, and it unfortunately has not slowed into 2021. The reduced capacities of companies in this industry due to Covid-19 health and safety regulations continues to have an impact. As a result, we are forced to increase our list pricing for 2021 and add a steel surcharge to off-set the rising costs that is projected to continue this year. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have on our close and prospective customers. We we will do what we can to keep our prices low when the opportunities are found, but right now we are left with little options.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Product overview
INS Traction CTS GripMaster Series Tire Studs
Description
The Gripmaster Series Tire Studs from INS Traction deliver superior traction for your skid steer on virtually any terrain. Whether you're navigating snow, mud, dirt, or ice, these tire studs provide the grip you need to prevent unwanted slippage and maintain full control of your machine. Available in 250 or 500 packs of the popular 1-inch studs, these studs are designed for heavy-duty use, equipped with carbide tips that ensure long-lasting performance by creating additional points of contact.
Why Choose Gripmaster Tire Studs?
- Exceptional Traction: Perfect for working on slippery surfaces like ice, snow, or mud. The carbide tips on these tire studs add a solid bite to your tires, improving your machine’s stability and reducing slippage.
- Durability: Built for longevity, the carbide tips are designed to withstand tough conditions, ensuring your skid steer continues to perform at its best.
- Versatile Application: These tire studs are ideal for skid steers, compact loaders, and other heavy machinery that frequently work in difficult terrains.
- Easy Installation With their hex-style head, these tire studs are easy to install using a power drill. For added convenience, we offer an optional installation tool. Once the carbide tip has worn down, removal is just as simple—just unscrew the tire studs using the same drill.
Disclaimer: The Gripmaster Tire Studs are designed to provide traction by creating a firm bite into the surface, including snow and ice. However, be cautious when using these on delicate surfaces like driveways, as they may leave temporary scratches or marks, especially during skid turns. These marks typically fade after a few rainstorms, but if you're working on a client’s property, it's essential to use care or avoid studs to prevent surface damage. Skid Steer Solutions and our manufacturer assume no liability for how the product is used.
Tire Stud Installation
- Use a low torque driver at fairly slow speed
- Screw the stud in until the washer (underside) visually makes contact with the rubber
- Go no more that 1/2 turn past that point.
- We recommend using 30mm or 1" studs for skid steer or compact loader installations because of the amount of tearing action the machines can produce when turning. It is your responsibility to measure and order the correct length to insure they cannot pull out. It they are too short, they will pull out.
NOTE: PLEASE ENSURE THE SIZE OF THE STUDS DO NOT EXCEED THE DEPTH OF YOUR TRACKS/TIRES TREADS BEFORE PURCHASE, YOU MAY DAMAGE YOUR TRACKS/TIRES.
