Durable Grip. Clear Step-Edge Contrast.
Ecoglo® N20 Series non-slip stair strips combine a hard-wearing silicon-carbide walking surface with a rigid aluminum base to improve stair-edge traction and color contrast on indoor and outdoor stairs.
Ecoglo® N2050 Yellow Anti-Slip Strips, 1.5 inches | N20
Ecoglo® N2050 is the yellow model in the N20 Series of 1.5-inch-wide non-slip stair-edge strips. Designed for existing concrete, wood and metal stair treads, N2050 combines hard-wearing yellow silicon-carbide traction with a rigid aluminum substrate for long-lasting anti-slip protection and visible step-edge contrast.
1.5-Inch Non-Slip Stair Edge Strip for Commercial Safety
Ecoglo® N2050 is designed for architects, contractors, estimators, property managers, safety managers and building owners who need a durable stair-edge safety upgrade combining traction, long service life and visual contrast.
The yellow silicon-carbide surface is integrally bonded to the aluminum substrate. Ecoglo® states that the N20 Series is engineered for heavy pedestrian traffic and can be installed on suitable concrete, wood and metal stair treads.
Hard-Wearing Traction
Silicon-carbide non-slip material provides a durable pedestrian contact surface for stair edges in demanding environments.
Step-Edge Color Contrast
The yellow surface can create strong visual definition against lighter stair finishes, helping users identify the leading edge of each step.
Low-Profile Aluminum Base
The approximately 0.1-inch-high rigid aluminum profile spreads load across the adhesive installation area while maintaining a compact stair-edge profile.
