Heskins Chemical Resistant Safety-Grip anti slip floor tape provides excellent grip in environments where the material could be exposed to chemicals, such as cleaning cupboards, labs, hospitals, etc.

Chemical Resistant Safety Grip resists most chemical attacks, withstanding long term exposure to high concentration chemicals, but is not designed to resist harsh chemicals such as toluene, MEK etc. The chemicals are not commonly used but they can create problems for resins.

With the same appearance, adhesion level, grit and friction as the normal Safety-Grip range, Chemical Resistant Safety-Grip will match existing Safety-Grip installations and is available in 3 grades:

• H3447 - Standard Grade - 18.3m rolls, widths from 25mm to 900mm
• H3443 - Coarse Grade - 18.3m rolls, widths from 25mm to 900mm
• H3446 - X-Coarse - 18.3m rolls, widths from 25mm to 1150mm

Custom shapes, colours and sizes can be made to order - contact our sales team on 0113 2455450 or [email protected].

See the Heskins range of accessories for additional help during application, pro-longing the life of anti-slip tapes and line markings. The range consists of primers, edge fixing, mallets, rollers etc.

The Safety Grip range is available in many thicknesses and colours, including Transparent, Fluorescent Yellow, Hazard schemes in red/white and black/yellow, Camouflage, and Glow In The Dark Photoluminescent. The material comes on rolls as well as pre-made shapes, such as feet and boot outlines; more sizes and custom cuts, shapes and colours can be made to order, up to a maximum width of 1168mm - contact our sales team by email or on 0113 2455450 to discuss your requirements.

Product Data

Standard Grade and Coarse Grade:

The independent test laboratory at Adhesive Technical Services Ltd performed the temperature test, England (test results available)

The above tests were conducted in accordance with Pendulum, the tests were conducted at a recognised independent friction testing laboratory, and copy certificates are available on request. Pendulum is a dynamic test, for static tests we also have results ASTM C 1028-96.

Application

1. Material Storage - Ensure the material is kept in dry, warm conditions in the original protective packaging.
2. Surface Preparation - A clean, dry surface is essential. Use an IPA cleaner to remove all surface contaminants (paint flakes, etc) – DO NOT use methylated spirits/petrol/lighter fluid etc as these leave behind a thin, greasy residue. Ensure prepared surface is above 10°C.
3. Porous Surface Sealing - Porous surfaces must be sealed prior to application to prevent water attacking the adhesive. Toluene based primers are ideal - we recommend our own product for this job. Apply a thin coat to the cleaned surface using a paint brush, then leave to dry.
4. Tape Application - Peel back part of the release liner then press the adhesive firmly onto the prepared surface, and slowly keep peeling back the liner while applying the tape. Try to ensure that the tape is not taut.
5. Finish! - Once applied, press tape down firmly using even pressure (decorating rollers are excellent for this). We recommend sealing the edges using ‘edge fix’ as this will extend the life of the product. Only use a small amount down the edges, a thin bead. If correctly applied, the new anti-slip surface can be walked on straight away, though you will get maximum benefit from the adhesive system after 48 hours.
