Which Texture is Best for Your Anti-Slip Tape Application?

Safety Grip anti-slip tape is available in Coarse texture in black and also yellow, and Extra Coarse is only available in black unless custom ordered.

Standard Anti-Slip Tape - 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. Available in many standard colors.

Coarse Anti-Slip Tape - Anti-slip tape 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. Available in black and yellow.

Extra Coarse Anti-Slip Tape - 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. Available in black only unless custom ordered.

Use Edge-Grip to seal the edges for all Safety-Grip anti-slip tape 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 in our anti-slip tapes.
