Outsoles

TPU Outsole

Our Thermoplastic Urethane (TPU) Outsole is the all-rounder, suiting most work environments.

The main difference from the Nitrile Outsole is that the TPU Outsole is more lightweight and is heat resistant to 130ºC.

Most of our work boots come standard with a TPU Outsole. It’s very durable, providing a high tolerance against cuts, abrasion, splitting and cracking, as well as a high resistance to most oils and chemicals. The TPU Outsole also provides slip resistance for uneven and slippery surfaces.

All Steel Blue safety boots featuring our TPU Outsole comply with:

• Australian and New Zealand Safety Footwear Standard AS 2210.3

• International and European Safety Footwear Certification EN ISO 20345

• American Safety Footwear Certification ASTM F2413

Steel Blue’s Non-Safety work boots that feature our TPU Outsole also comply with Australian and New Zealand Safety Footwear Standard AS 2210.5, International and European Safety Footwear Certification EN ISO 20347, and American Safety Footwear Certification ASTM F2892.

If you don’t need extreme heat protection, this is the lightweight Outsole you need for your work boots.
