Howies Stick Wax 3-Pack — Hockey Tape Wax for Players, Boosts Blade Tack & Repels Ice, Strawberry-Kiwi Scent

Howies Hockey Tape Stick Wax 3-Pack is a waxed blade treatment that boosts blade tack, repels ice and snow, and leaves a fresh strawberry-kiwi scent in your gear bag.

Keep your stick performing game after game: this three-pack of Howies Stick Wax adds tack to the blade for cleaner puck contact, minimizes ice buildup, and gives equipment a pleasant scent. Made in the USA from formulations developed for hockey use, the wax is designed for routine application to taped blades and works with most tape types. It’s a simple, lightweight product to carry with your tape roll or practice bag and helps maintain consistent feel on shots and passes.

How does this wax improve puck control?

The wax creates a tacky surface on the blade that enhances grip on the puck, which helps with stickhandling precision and shot accuracy. It offers immediate feedback to players who want more bite on dekes, passes, and wrist shots without changing blade profile or tape layout.

• Increases surface tack for better puck stick adherence.
• Works on new and worn tape to restore feel.
• Easy, even application for consistent performance.

Will it prevent snow and ice buildup on my blade?

Yes — the formulation is designed to repel moisture that causes snow and ice to cling to tape, helping the blade stay drier through shifts. By reducing buildup, it maintains a more predictable blade surface during cold, wet conditions.

• Water-repellent formula reduces ice accumulation.
• Helps keep tape surface dry and tacky longer.
• Useful in outdoor rinks and slushy ice environments.

How do I apply the stick wax and how often should I use it?

Apply a thin, even layer along the taped area of the blade before practice or games; a little goes a long way. Reapply as needed when you notice reduced tack or after heavy use — many players use it once per session or whenever tape is replaced.

• Rub directly onto taped blade in smooth strokes.
• Wipe off excess with a cloth for consistent feel.
• Store in bag pocket; keep away from children and pets.

Who is this for? Players at every level who want a low-effort way to improve blade bite and reduce ice buildup will find this 3-pack convenient and effective. It’s ideal for players who prefer maintaining tape feel without changing taping technique, coaches preparing multiple sticks, and parents stocking a team bag. Note: scented formulation smells like strawberry-kiwi but is not edible.
