Marine Grade Anti Slip Applications
Anti-Slip Tape
Marine-grade anti slip tape is designed to cope with the harsh open seas, but it does have other uses.
Built to endure the sometimes harsh nature of the open seas, H3460 Marine grip tape has officially proved its worth. Heskins® has manufactured a product that will stand strong through both rough and calm waters while still possessing its non-slip properties at full potential. It has been known that this material is salt water resistant and durable for application in seafaring boats, yachts, vessels, etc. What is not so obvious is that this material can be used in several other applications. Because of its mop friendly, easily cleanable surface, this grip tape is suitable for places such as restrooms, pool house, wet rooms, or kitchens (especially if those places must meet any hygiene regulations).
This marine grade anti-slip tape is constructed from teeny granules, similar to glass beads, known as S2. This is intended to make the material kinder to bare skin than Heskins® Safety Grip while still keeping its anti-slip properties. Not only is this good for the typical water vehicle usage, but this can be perfect when applying the material in a place such as a pool house where bare feet will meet the tape. And although this construction creates a strong grip without compromising the comfort and effortlessness of cleaning! We believe that this material will forever increase in demand as it has several different uses and we are continually discovering more. Just like all Heskins® anti slip tape applications, this marine grade anti slip material does still need to be applied to a clean dry surface.
Other Applications
Marine anti-slip tape can be applied in many areas. Although it is designed for surfaces out at sea, that doesn’t limit the application areas! A common area for this to be applied would be around the pool, which can be a very slippery surface and cause accidents. With our marine safety grip being kinder to bare skin, this would be a suitable application. As stated before, marine tape can also be applied in kitchens as it’s waterproof, salt resistant, and non-abrasive. This means when it comes to cleaning the tape in the kitchen, it is entirely mop-proof, making it suitable for this area.
How Do You Apply Anti-Slip Tape?
The application process for anti-slip tape is straightforward. The first step would be to clean the surface before application. This is important as some contaminants on the surface could have a negative effect on the adhesive layer. The second step is to ensure your tape is to the correct length and then peel off the backing liner and apply it to the surface, making sure you apply firm pressure. Once applied, the tape can be used instantly. For a more in-depth guide, watch our YouTube video!
