Which Texture is Best for Your Application?

(Only black and yellow Safety Grip is available in Coarse and Extra Coarse)

Standard - Ideal for general environments without mud.
Little damage to bare skin in case of a fall. Grit size
approximately 60, or 0.010” average particle.

Coarse - Good for many industrial environments but can
be harsh to skin, so don’t use it where children or disabled
and/or elderly adults are likely to fall for reasons other than
a slip. Grit size approximately 36, or about 0.019” average
particle.

Extra Coarse - Best choice where mud may be present.
Very, very durable because of its large grit size. Also,
useful where extra strong traction is needed, such as
external ramps, sloping driveways, loading docks.
Aggressive to bare skin in a fall, though. Grit size
approximately 24, or 0.027” average particle.

Use Edge-Grip to seal the edges for all Safety-Grip that is
frequently exposed to water.

Grit size is less important than slip resistance, as measured by
wet Pendulum Test Value (PTV), plus durability. Too heavy a
coating on top of any abrasive destroys its effectiveness by
drowning the sharp points that provide wet traction. Our
technology and quality control, together with use of tough
aluminum oxide particles (much more durable than silica sand)
result in high slip resistance as well as excellent durability.
