General Information
- We designed our non-slip cast in place stair nosing to be installed into wet concrete. As such, this product can be used on concrete stairs, concrete-filled steel pan stairs, and pre-cast concrete stairs.
- The standard lengths of our aluminum stair nosing are 8ft and 10ft. It is also available in cut to length sizes for your convenience (Tolerance + or – 1/8”).
- Do you want your metal stair nosing to come with the non-slip inserts attached or unattached? The option is all yours. Unattached inserts can easily be installed later to ensure the product is clean and has not been damaged during installation.
- Inserts should be installed with a premium polyurethane adhesive.
- A clear protective tape wraps around the product to keep it clean during installation. To remove, cut the tape along the edges and peel away.
- Weight: 0.625 lbs/ft.
Aluminum Finish:
- We use 6063-T5 Mill finish aluminum and coat our metal stair nosing with an acrylic lacquer finish to prevent corrosion.
- Thousands of people can walk on our non-slip cast in place stair nosing with no signs of wear and tear thanks to the hard-wearing silicon carbide non-slip material that we integrally bond to the aluminum substrate.
- We designed the thick anodized finish to be aesthetically pleasing, be extremely hard and abrasion-resistant, and prevent corrosion.
- The anodized aluminum surface of our stair strips is harder than pure aluminum – second only to the hard-crystalline structure of diamonds.
- Our team designed the color of the non-slip material to provide a clear contrast and excellent step edge visibility.
- Our aluminum tread nosing easily passed multiple exposure tests with excellent results, including tests of accelerated UV/exposure, Salt Spray Resistance, Freeze-Thaw Resistance, and Washability.
- We designed our anti-slip aluminum stair nosing with the health of the planet in mind. As such, this product qualifies for LEED Points due to its energy efficiency and recyclable material.
- These stair strips can be easily recycled at no additional cost to our clients.
