Protect and enhance staircases in any location by selecting SLIPNOT slip resistant stair treads and nosings.
Slip-Resistant
Metal Planks
Eliminate slip liabilities in your facility’s harshest environments with slip-resistant metal planks engineered for long-lasting traction. SLIPNOT® delivers superior industrial plank slip prevention by replacing temporary fixes with a high-friction surface. Unlike diamond plate or serrated grating, which wear smooth, our long-lasting, non-skid planks maintain their bond strength and coefficient of friction even when covered in oil, grease, or water.
PRODUCT DETAILS
SLIPNOT® Anti-Slip Industrial Planks
SLIPNOT® anti-slip industrial planks feature a proprietary metal coating mechanically bonded to the surface at over 4,000 PSI, creating a walking and working surface that will not flake or peel. This technology ensures your facility exceeds the NFSI B101.3 “High Traction” standard and outperforms the OSHA-recommended static coefficient of friction of 0.5.
Key product features and benefits include:
- Long-lasting bonded safety: Rather than paint or epoxy, the surface is molten metal applied to the substrate, offering durability that lasts for decades.
- Superior drainage: Punched plank options allow liquids and debris to pass through while maintaining maximum grip, making them ideal for trenches, catwalks, and mezzanines.
- Versatile utility: They present a more suitable alternative to standard slip-resistant grating for areas requiring a solid or semi-solid walking path.
- Regulatory compliance: Our planks meet and exceed all ADA, ANSI, and OSHA requirements for slip resistance

INSTALLATION METHODS
For Flexible Non-Slip Industrial Planks
Installation is flexible, allowing for a secure, high-friction plank application in new construction or retrofit projects:
- Direct fastening: Secure planks directly to stringers or supports using countersunk bolts or saddle clips.
- Welding: You can weld aluminum planks to existing structural frames for a permanent, vibration-resistant bond.
- Retrofit capability: Easily install planks over existing worn-out concrete or slip-resistant plates to upgrade safety without costly demolition.
- Structural note: Please consult our engineering team regarding fastening frequency to prevent bowing that may occur during the thermal coating process.
