Are these good for semi steep mountaineering (only snow)? Im looking for an inexpensive pair that will not fail me on my 3-season hiking boots.

Yes, these will work fine for basic mountaineering. I know plenty of people who have used them on vertical ice as well. They aren't the best for technical climbing, but they definitely work. These are the gold standard in strap-on crampons.
