What is SlipNOT®?

SlipNOT® Metal Safety Flooring Products represents state of the art technology in slip resistant metal surfaces. SlipNOT® products range from sure-step bar gratings, high traction safety floor plates, permanently safe ladder rungs and rung covers, sure-step stair tread covers and nosing, or anti-slip perforated and expanded metal, SlipNOT® is the one-time answer for increased productivity and the long-term solution for accident-free work zones.  SlipNOT® is ideal for wet and/or oily surfaces.


Process: SlipNOT® is a plasma stream deposition process applying molten metal to a metal substrate. This patented process results in a unique random hatch matrix surface, which provides the longest life and maximum slip resistance available. The SlipNOT® surface can typically be applied to material from as thin as 1/8” thickness.  SlipNOT® prefers all material to be no wider than 72” and no longer than 144” for plates (longer lengths can be accommodated), and no longer than 288” for grating. 


Strength: SlipNOT® is bonded to the metal substrate at over 4,000 psi resulting in a surface hardness of over 55 on the Rockwell "C" scale. This combination provides 100% surface coverage for unparalleled durability and traction even in the most demanding environments.

Material Types : Steel, Aluminum, and Stainless Steel.  Steel products can be offered with a hot dipped galvanized finish.

Surface Coating Choices : SlipNOT® is available in Steel, Stainless Steel, and Aluminum.

  • Steel:  Steel SlipNOT® is durable and cost effective.  It is completely grit free, has a bond strength of over 4,000 psi and surface hardness of over 55 Rc.
  • Stainless Steel: Combining chemical resistance, a proven bond strength of over 4,000 psi, and surface hardness of over 55 Rc, the patented SlipNOT® surface on Stainless Steel plate and Stainless Steel grating is the proven choice for even the most demanding environments.  Grit-free and NSF registered, Stainless Steel SlipNOT® is ideal for use in the food and chemical industries.
  • Aluminum: SlipNOT® ’s Aluminum surface, like all SlipNOT® products, is completely grit-free and the ideal choice for lightweight, rust-free safety.  With bond strength of over 2,000 psi, Aluminum SlipNOT® plates and grating provide high traction with lightweight durability.

Grades: SlipNOT® is available in three grades: Grade 1- Fine, Grade 2 - Medium and Grade 3 - Coarse.

  • Grade 1- Fine:
    • The Grade 1 (Fine) surface has an average peak to valley surface depth of 0.010”.
    • This grade is used in light duty applications.  This surface produces the same high coefficient of friction as our Grade 2 (Medium) and Grade 3 (Coarse).  Any surface treatments, such as priming or painting, should not exceed 5 mils to prevent degradation of the SlipNOT® performance.  Hot dipped galvanizing is not available for Grade 1 Steel plates.
    • Grade 1 (Fine) is available for all SlipNOT surfaces.

  • Grade 2- Medium:
    • This surface grade is applicable for nearly every situation.  With an average peak to valley surface depth of 0.020-0.025”, Grade 2 (Medium) SlipNOT® provides maximum traction, durability, and longevity.
    • Surface treatments to this grade should not exceed a total of 10 mils to prevent reduction of the surface coefficient of friction.  For steel plates, hot dip galvanizing is the ideal surface protection.
    • The Grade 2 (Medium) is the maximum coarseness available for SlipNOT® Aluminum and Stainless Steel surfaces.

  • Grade 3- Coarse:
    • This surface is used for maximum traction in extremely high traffic or highly contaminated environments.  With an average peak to valley surface depth of 0.033-0.036”, Grade 3 (Coarse) SlipNOT® provides maximum durability and longevity. 
    • This grade is only offered in our Steel SlipNOT® surface.

Finish Choices:  SlipNOT® finish is available in Mill Finish, Painted and Galvanized.
