HESKINS SAFETY GRIP HAZARD CONFORMABLE TRACTION TAPE

Heskin's conformable traction tape is perfect for applying to irregular surfaces such as diamond treads, also known as checkers or Diamond plates.   

If you have an irregular surface, you need a product that can cope with the intricacies of this demanding application. Diamond tread can be a dangerous surface; it is potentially lethal when wet, creating a greater risk of slips. The levels of grip can also be shallow; this is measured in the Coefficient of Friction (COF). Applying conventional tape does not work successfully since the peaks and valleys stretch the plastic film. Thus, when applied to the valleys, it will want to revert to its original flat state, resulting in the tape lifting off the surface and becoming useless. Heskin's conformable tape has an entirely different construction designed to work perfectly as diamond plate tape. 

The conformable anti-slip tape looks similar to a conventional grip tape, but we use a soft aluminum foil base instead of a plastic one. This ensures the conformable traction tape conforms to the surface properly. Our tapes must also be applied to a clean, dry surface. To apply conformable anti-slip tape, you press the tape onto the surface, aligning it correctly, and with the use of a soft rubber mallet (which we can supply), hit the traction tape. Hence, it forms into the shape of the diamond tread pattern, reducing the chance of tears and material failure. 

The upper surface of conformable anti-slip tape is an abrasive mineral coat; the minerals we apply ensure that the customer receives a product that provides Coefficient of Friction levels far exceeding any State or Federal requirement. Non-slip flooring is required by MIL SPECS MIL-17951, MIL-5044 & MIL-PRF-24667, OSHA, and the Americans with Disabilities Act 2008.

Conformable Anti Slip Tape Sizes

Rolls of conformable anti-slip tape are available in widths from ¾ inches to 39 inches (black/yellow hazard chevrons are up to 20 inches ). We can produce any length (on request) from 5 feet to 300 feet.
