“SURE STEP” SAFETY STAIR NOSINGS

EXTRUDED BASE, ABRASIVE FILLER

• IMPACT RESISTANT
• BARRIER-FREE
• ANTI-SLIP SURFACE
• CHOICE OF COLOR
• ECONOMICAL

Choice of color enhances the appeal of these handsome “sure step” safety stair nosings. Designed for heavy-duty use indoors and outdoors, these safety nosings meet and exceed all OSHA and Barrier-Free requirements.

IMPACT RESISTANT  These nosings are manufactured from an extruded aluminum base filled with a mixture of anti-slip abrasive granules in an advanced formula epoxy binder. Their remarkable strength is capable of absorbing heavy impact.

BARRIER-FREE  The designs shown on pages 9 and 11 are in compliance with the Barrier-Free Code, ensuring those physically impaired complete access to public buildings.

ANTI-SLIP SURFACE  Each abrasive-filled rib projects above the aluminum base for the greatest exposure of anti-slip surface in any tread currently being produced in the United States.

CHOICE OF COLOR Colors are locked into the epoxy abrasive mixture and will not fade or wear off, maintaining a rich color to blend with any decor.

ECONOMICAL  Using our exclusive automated filling machinery, these extruded base safety nosings are manufactured at three times the speed of ordinary methods. This labor saving method reduces cost considerably.
