AFL - Australian Football

In Australian rules football, your hands are everything. Marking, handballing, and taking contested grabs under pressure all come down to control. Griptec's range of instant non-slip hand grip pastes and sprays is built to give AFL players a stronger, more confident hold on the ball, no matter the conditions.

The Griptec Hand Grip Paste delivers maximum tack at T4 level professional-grade grip that resists sweat and moisture and lasts up to 90 minutes per application. For players who prefer a quick hit before a game, the Instant Grip Spray applies fast, dries clean, and gets you match-ready in seconds. Prefer a lighter touch? The Dry Grip Spray offers a T1 Delicate Control finish — non-sticky with just enough feel for clean ball movement and fast transitions.
