SlipNOT® anti-slip steel ladder rungs provide essential safety for new ladder construction.  SlipNOT® ladder rungs give ladders a more stable non slip surface, which is more comfortable to grab than regular metal rungs.  Safety ladder rungs exceed the OSHA standard 1926.1053 (a)(6)(i) and OSHA standard 1910.26 (a)(1)(v) for slip resistant ladder rungs.

See SlipNOT® Specifications, CAD Drawings, COF/ADA and Case Studies regarding non-slip ladder rungs.

Product Features:

• Advantages: SlipNOT® steel ladder rungs have an unmatched surface hardness and a long life. SlipNOT® non slip steel ladder rungs provide a permanently safe surface for new ladder construction.
• Availability: SlipNOT® slip resistant steel ladder rungs can be purchased in stock sized rungs or can be cut to size in order to meet specific project requirements.
• Care: If rungs are to be exposed to the weather, some sort of coating treatment (either priming / painting or hot dip galvanizing) is required. (Guidelines for Galvanizing)
• Durability: Steel nonslip ladder rungs coated with SlipNOT® have a file hard surface between 55 – 63 on the Rockwell “C” scale and a bond strength of at least 4,000 psi.
• Fabrication: Steel ladder rungs can be flame cut or cut with any standard band saw, chop saw or other means.  The surface can be welded and there is no need to grind the ends for assembly.  Rungs can be welded directly into the sides of support stringers, then painted or galvanized as needed. (Fabricating Specifics)
• Slip Resistant Standards: Steel ladder rungs meet and exceed all the requirements for an ASTM / ANSI slip resistant surface and is registered slip resistant with Underwriters Laboratories per the UL 410 standard.  SlipNOT® coefficient of friction is greater than or equal to 0.85. SlipNOT® is applied only to the topside of the rung. (Standards and Test Results)
