Ecoglo® F4260 Black Anodized Flat Stair Nosing – Gray Non-Slip Stair Protection
Improve stair traction, define the leading edge of each step and protect high-traffic stairways with a durable black anodized aluminum safety nosing.
The Ecoglo® F4260 Black Anodized Flat Stair Nosing combines a durable 6063-T5 aluminum profile with a hard-wearing gray silicon carbide non-slip insert. The gray insert provides a subtle visual distinction against the black anodized profile while delivering dependable traction for commercial, institutional, industrial and public stairways.
Suitable for installation over concrete, timber, tile, steel, checker plate and thin carpeted stairs, the F4260 provides a practical way to renovate worn stair edges without replacing the complete stair system.
The integrally bonded silicon carbide non-slip insert provides durable traction to help reduce the risk of slips on heavily travelled stairways.
The gray insert provides a visible but understated distinction against the black anodized profile, supporting clearer identification of the stair edge.
The thick anodized coating creates a hard, attractive and abrasion-resistant surface that helps protect the aluminum against corrosion and everyday wear.
The non-slip material is permanently bonded to the anodized aluminum substrate for dependable performance in demanding commercial and public environments.

- The hard-wearing silicon carbide non-slip material is integrally bonded to the aluminum substrate. Thousands of people can walk on it with no signs of wear and tear.
Superior Step Edge Safety
- The color contrasting the non-slip material with advanced photoluminescent technology provides step edge visibility in all light conditions.
- The unique ridges in the Ecoglo® photoluminescent strips and the integrated anti-slip contrast strips provide all-weather slip resistance.
Installed Durability:
- The rigid aluminum base spreads any applied load over a greater area of installation adhesive. Installation with a premium polyurethane adhesive/sealant is extremely durable, moisture resistant, and works very well on both smooth and textured surfaces.
For Indoor Use and Outdoor Use:
- Tested to accelerated UV/weathering exposure, and proven to be highly resistant to the effects of UV/weathering.
- The loss in performance is less than can be detected by the human eye when subjected to 6000 hours of UV exposure, which is similar to 30 years of outdoor exposure.
- The polymer used in Ecoglo’s patented process is “long chain” which forms a strong UV resistant product when bonding.
