FAQs

What makes this tape 'extra coarse'?

The tape features a 30-grit aluminum oxide coating, which is significantly coarser than standard abrasive materials, providing maximum grip in extremely challenging conditions.

Can this tape be used on wooden stairs outdoors?

Yes, it can be used on sealed wooden outdoor stairs. Ensure the wood is clean, dry, and properly sealed before application for best results and longevity.

Is the adhesive suitable for wet environments?

Yes, the industrial-grade adhesive is designed to withstand harsh conditions, including exposure to water, chemicals, and oils, ensuring a secure bond.

How long does the tape typically last?

Durability depends heavily on the traffic and environmental conditions. In high-traffic industrial areas, it's designed for long-term use, offering superior longevity compared to standard tapes.

Can I use this tape on my home's interior stairs?

While effective, the extra coarse nature might be abrasive for indoor use with lighter footwear. It is best suited for industrial, outdoor, or high-traffic areas where extreme grip is essential.

Is it difficult to remove the tape?

The industrial-grade adhesive provides a strong bond. Removal may require heat and a solvent designed for adhesive removal, especially after prolonged periods of use.

What does 'R118 Approved' mean?

R118 is a standard indicating a very high level of slip resistance, ensuring the tape meets stringent safety requirements for anti-slip flooring and surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Tape is not adhering properly

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Remove any contaminants like oil or dust. Re-apply pressure using a roller or firm hand pressure, especially on the edges.

Air bubbles under the tape

If small bubbles appear during application, try to push them towards the edge. For larger bubbles, you may need to lift and reapply that section, ensuring the surface is clean.

Tape lifting at the edges

Apply additional pressure to the edges, or consider using a compatible edge sealer designed for anti-slip tapes to further secure the perimeter.

Reduced grip over time

Clean the surface of the tape regularly with a stiff brush and mild detergent to remove accumulated dirt and debris that can reduce traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers superior grip in extremely slippery conditions.
  • Built for exceptional durability in industrial and outdoor settings.
  • Resistant to chemicals, oils, weather, and ice.
  • Easy to apply with strong adhesive backing.
  • Meets recognized safety standards (R118).

Cons

  • The extra coarse grit may be abrasive for some applications or footwear.
  • May require more effort to clean compared to finer-grit tapes.
  • The aggressive nature might not be suitable for delicate surfaces.
  • Custom cuts may require careful measurement and execution.
  • Not designed for aesthetic purposes; focus is on function.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose debris. A thorough cleaning and drying are essential for optimal adhesion.
  2. Cut the tape to the desired size using sharp scissors or a utility knife.
  3. Peel back a small section of the backing paper.
  4. Carefully apply the tape to the surface, pressing down firmly as you go to avoid air bubbles.
  5. Once applied, use a hand roller or firm pressure to ensure the edges are well-adhered.

Compatibility:

This tape is designed for hard, non-porous surfaces such as concrete, metal, sealed wood, and tile. It is not recommended for soft, uneven, or fabric surfaces.

Care:

To maintain performance, regularly clean the tape with a stiff brush and a mild detergent solution. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on the tape edges, as this can lift the adhesive over time. For stubborn dirt or grease, use a degreaser recommended for industrial use, ensuring it is compatible with the substrate and the tape's adhesive.
