Description

3G Formula Interchangeable Bowling Shoe Heel (H17) - Least Brake

The 3G Formula H17 is an interchangeable pull-tab heel for 3G Racer line shoes. It provides the most slide, least brake (low friction), so you can tune how much your foot holds at the line.

Where the Formula H17 Fits on the 3G Formula Scale

The 3G Formula heels run from H3 (extreme friction, the most brake) through H5, H7, H11, and H15 to H17 (low friction, the most slide). A higher number means more slide and less brake. The Formula H17 sits at the top of the Formula heel scale, best for tacky approaches where your feet stop too soon. Pair it with a Formula slide sole to fine-tune your finish.

Details

  • Brake level: most slide, least brake (low friction)
  • System: Formula pull-tab, interchangeable
  • Best for: tacky approaches where your feet stop too soon
  • Compatibility: For 3G Racer line shoes (Racer, Dial Racer, Mesh Racer). Uses the pull-tab system; not compatible with the velcro Solid / Tour-line system.

How to Install

Pull the old sole off by its tab, line the new sole up in the pocket, press it into place, and trim the oversized edge to match your shoe. Test on the approach before bowling.

    3G replacement heels

    Posted by Hidalgo Constantino on Mar 2nd 2026

    I would have rated it 5 stars because the replacement heels are giving me the perfect slide I needed when bowling. I bought them for my Dexter EXJ SST8 and I had to trim them off for a perfect fit.

    Heel Slides

    Posted by James Thompson on May 16th 2025

    This is the first type of bowling shoe that had interchangeable heels and soles. I am so glad, but sad that it took so long to purchase them. Recently, we had an issue with the approaches being sticky or to slippery. I was able to make a change to my slide shoe and things worked out great, I highly recommend the 3G Bowling Shoe and additional hardware

    3G Formula Interchangeable Bowling Shoe Heel (H17)

    I bought this heel because the original heel has too much breaking for me. With the H17, I now have the right amount of slied.

    3G H17

    This heal is about the same as a H7 & it may give you more slide in low humidity areas.
