Product Detail
Conformable anti-slip step treads are extremely tough, resin-bonded aluminum oxide providing a long lasting gritty finish. These non-slip stair treads are suitable for concrete, wood, brick, stone and metal, and can be used on interior and exterior surfaces.
Features and Benefits of Conformable Slip-Free Stair Treads:
- A flexible aluminum backing conforms to textured surfaces
- Available in Black, Yellow and Hazard
- Improves safety on profiled metal, diamond plate and profiled slabs
- Water resistant, easy to apply self-adhesive
- Size: 6" x 24
- Available in Black, Yellow and Hazard
- A rubber mallet is recommended for installation
- Allow 24 hours for product to fully set before being walked on, if possible
Dusty surfaces will require Safety Tape Primer to improve adhesion. Safety Tape Edge Sealer is recommended for wet or heavy wear areas to protect the edges and help reduce water seepage.
Specifications
| Suitable for: | Concrete, wood, brick, stone & metal floors, steps and ramps |
| Usage Interior/Exterior: | Interior or Exterior |
| Primer Required: | Use Safety Tape Primer on weak, dusty surfaces |
How to Apply
Conformable Slip Free Treads are self adhesive and can be firmed into place with a rubber mallet.
Surface Preparation: Apply to clean, smooth, dry surfaces such as painted or varnished wood, concrete, metal, tiles, and terrazzo. Apply direct to smooth, hard concrete; dusty concrete will require a primer.
Priming: Smooth, non porous, dust free surfaces do not require priming. To improve adhesion on weak, dusty surfaces, apply a coat of Safety Tape Primer.
Application: Avoid application at temperatures below 50°F. Low temperatures can reduce adhesion. On steps and nosings, apply the product approximately 3/8" in from the edge to prevent premature wear and edge curl. Peel back the backing strip approximately 2" to reveal the adhesive layer. Avoid removing too much of the backing strip, but slowly keep peeling it back while firming the product into place. Firming down by hand or foot pressure is generally sufficient. A rubber mallet is recommended for firming Conformable Safety Tape and Conformable Slip Free Treads (the flexible, aluminum backed products) into place. Avoid stretching the tapes and treads during application.
Adhesion: Although the product can be walked on virtually straight away, the adhesive can take 24 hours to set fully. Immediately after placing the item onto the substrate, it can be peeled off reasonably easily for repositioning if necessary. Avoid lifting the tread or removing the tape to allow the adhesive to cure. Please allow the adhesive to set for up to 24 hours, especially if using in heavily trafficked or hazardous areas.
