Aluminum Tread
A SlipNOT® slip resistant aluminum tread can help prevent slip and fall incidents.
SlipNOT® slip resistant aluminum treads are lightweight, durable, and retain their slip resistance even when covered in oil, water or other lubricants. The patented SlipNOT® process deposits a stream of molten metal plasma onto a metal substrate which creates a high friction, resilient surface. The SlipNOT® surface has a coefficient of friction greater than or equal to 0.85, which far exceeds any current or proposed OSHA, ADA, UL, ASTM and NFPA specifications for slip resistant surfaces. The SlipNOT® coating is 100% grit free and won’t flake off and lasts longer than many other taped-on or painted-on products.
Each SlipNOT® non-slip aluminum tread is custom fit to your specifications. Each piece can be tailored to fit into an existing area, making it easy to retrofit over existing stairways. A SlipNOT® aluminum tread can also be used for new construction to enhance safety on new stairways. SlipNOT® aluminum treads can also retrofit over existing slippery diamond plate to instantly create a safe walking surface and reduce workplace injuries. A SlipNOT® aluminum tread is generally welded directly onto stringers or can be bolted in place.
Each SlipNOT® aluminum tread is available in the following non-slip surfaces:
- Grade 1 (Fine) – Used for light duty applications where minimal slip resistance is needed
- Grade 2 (Medium) – Generally used for every application where slip resistance is mandatory
A SlipNOT® aluminum tread is ideal for applications in slippery environments where accidents can occur, such as:
- Anti-slip industrial stairway
- Dock stairway
- Mezzanine stairway
- Non-slip airplane stairway
- School stairway
- Slip resistant commercial stairway
- Slip resistant ship/marine stairway
