Notch Steel Climbers

The Notch Steel Climbers are high-performance climbing spikes designed for professional arborists and linemen who demand all-day comfort, stability and reliability in the tree. Engineered with an advanced ergonomic shank, adjustable cuff and dual buckle system, these arborist climbers help reduce fatigue, relieve shin pressure and provide a more natural foot position during climbing work, certified to ASTM F887.

Available with either tree (long) or pole (short) gaffs, they're in stock at Gustharts as an authorised Notch dealer, with free UK delivery on this order.

With a focus on comfort-driven design and practical adjustability, they offer improved fit, better pressure distribution and enhanced performance for demanding daily use in arboricultural and utility environments.

Technical Details

Why Choose Notch Steel Climbers?

Notch Equipment is a US-based arborist and lineman equipment brand focused specifically on ergonomic, comfort-driven design rather than simply reproducing traditional climbing spike shapes — the redesigned cuff and dual buckle system exist because climbers reported shin pressure and fit inconsistency with older-style climbers. If you want a lower-cost steel climber alternative without the ergonomic cuff upgrades, the Treehog TH1000 is a solid budget option; choose the Notch if all-day comfort and adjustability are worth the higher price to you.

Certified Protection Explained

ASTM F887 is the American standard covering personal climbing equipment, including tree climbing spikes and spurs, confirming the climbers have been independently tested for the loads and stresses of professional climbing use.
