Iexcauw Replacement Step Pads for 3" Round Nerf Bars – Set of 4, 21" x 3", Non-Slip Durable Polymer with Mallet & Pins

Iexcauw replacement step pads are 21" x 3" non-slip covers designed to restore and upgrade 3" round nerf bars with a 5-hole layout, sold as a set of four with a rubber mallet and 24 installation pins.

These replacement pads give worn or damaged running boards a quick, durable refresh without the expense of new bars. Molded from heavy-duty polymer with a reinforced grid backing, they resist cracking, UV fade and corrosion so they hold up to off-road, coastal and everyday use. The package includes everything you need to swap out old pads: four 21" long pads, a rubber mallet, and 24 mounting pins for a straightforward, tool-minimal install.

Will these pads fit my nerf bars?

They’re engineered for 3" diameter round nerf bars that use a five-hole pad pattern. Measure the tube diameter and the distance between the mounting holes on your existing pads to confirm compatibility before ordering.

• Designed specifically for 3" (76 mm) round tubing.
• Fits five-hole pads with common hole spacings (verify your pattern).
• Replaces standard 21" long x 3" wide OEM-style pads.
• Contact Iexcauw with measurements if you’re unsure.

How simple is installation and what’s included?

Installation is intended to be quick and low-effort: remove the old pads and clips, align the new pad, then tap the supplied rubber mallet to seat the pins. No power tools are necessary for most installs, making the swap convenient in a driveway or at the trailhead.

• Includes four pads, one rubber mallet, and 24 pins for mounting.
• Tap-in installation—no drilling required when hole patterns match.
• Pro tip: applying a light lubricant like fluid film can ease fitment.
• If clips are corroded, replace them before final seating for a secure hold.

How do they perform in wet, icy or off-road conditions?

The non-slip surface provides reliable traction under foot in rain, mud or light snow while the reinforced back stops flex and cracking from heavy use. They’re also easy to keep clean—simple rinsing removes most dirt and salt, preserving grip and appearance.

• Textured tread helps prevent slips in wet or muddy weather.
• Polymer compound resists UV fading and salt corrosion.
• Grid-reinforced backing reduces chance of breakage under load.
• Low-maintenance: hose off to remove grime and road salt.

What should I check before buying to avoid fit issues?

Measure your current pad length, pad width and the tube diameter to ensure a proper fit. Confirm the five-hole pattern spacing on your existing pads matches the replacement; mismatched hole spacing is the most common incompatibility.

• Verify pad size: 21" long x 3" wide is required.
• Confirm tube diameter is 3" (76 mm).
• Compare hole spacing of existing pads to the replacement pattern.
• Reach out to Iexcauw customer support with photos for help.
