The Tribe T-MF-0009 is a replacement trekking pole tip made from steel and frost-resistant plastic, designed to fit pole shafts with a 1.2 cm diameter and restore grip to a worn or damaged pole end. Instead of retiring a pole because its tip has worn smooth, you fit a fresh Tribe tip and get back the reliable bite on rock, dirt, and ice. The steel component handles the wear that harsh surfaces inflict, while the frost-resistant plastic body stays intact in cold conditions where cheaper plastics can crack.
Hand-picked by our gear specialists, this small spare is exactly the kind of part that keeps good gear in service for years. At just 24 grams it is worth tucking into a repair kit, so a worn tip on a multi-day trip becomes a two-minute fix rather than a trip-ending problem for your nordic walking poles.
Who needs the Tribe replacement tip?
This replacement tip suits any hiker or Nordic walker whose pole tips have worn down or broken, and anyone who likes to carry spares on longer trips. Because a worn tip is one of the most common ways a good pole loses its grip, keeping a replacement on hand means you can refresh traction rather than replace the whole pole. It is a practical, low-cost part for people who maintain their gear and expect it to last.
What is the Tribe replacement tip made of?
The tip pairs a steel wear surface with a frost-resistant plastic body. Steel is the key to durability here, standing up to the constant abrasion of rock and hard trail that quickly rounds off softer tips. The frost-resistant plastic matters in winter and alpine use, where ordinary plastic can turn brittle and shatter in the cold. Together they make a tip that keeps working through the exact conditions that wear out and break lesser parts.
Which poles fit the Tribe replacement tip?
The tip is made to fit pole shafts with a 1.2 cm (0.47 inch) diameter, so before ordering it is worth measuring the base of your pole or checking its specification to confirm the match. Fitting a replacement tip is usually a simple job of removing the old tip and pressing or twisting the new one into place. Because it weighs only 24 grams, carrying one as a spare adds almost nothing to your pack while saving a trip if a tip fails far from home.

Tribe replacement tip FAQ
What pole diameter does this Tribe tip fit?
The tip is designed to fit trekking pole shafts with a 1.2 cm (0.47 inch) diameter. Before buying, measure the base of your pole or check its specifications to confirm the match, since a correct diameter is essential for the tip to seat securely.
What is the replacement tip made of?
It is made from a combination of steel and frost-resistant plastic. The steel provides a hard-wearing tip surface that grips rock and hard ground and resists abrasion, while the frost-resistant plastic body stays tough in cold conditions instead of cracking like ordinary plastic.
How much does the replacement tip weigh?
The tip weighs just 24 grams (0.85 ounces). That negligible weight makes it easy to carry one or two as spares in a repair kit, so a worn or broken tip on a long trip becomes a quick field fix rather than a trip-ending failure.
Why replace a pole tip instead of the whole pole?
Replacing the tip is far cheaper and more sustainable than buying a new pole. The tip is usually the first part to wear out, and once it has worn smooth a fresh one restores the pole's grip on dirt, rock, and ice, extending the life of gear that is otherwise still sound.
