Heskins Bolt Down Plates are ideal for providing a safe and stable anti slip tape installation on an unstable surface, such as sodden timber, flaking or saturated concrete, etc, seen on marine jetties, garden steps, and concrete paths prone to icing over in winter. Whilst most materials require adhesive, a dry surface, and a sound substrate, Bolt Down Plates screw into place with mechanical fixings and are manufactured from 1.6mm weatherproof aluminium, coping with even the most difficult environmental conditions.
Particularly wet weather and wintry conditions can result in accidents around the workplace, with customers slipping and workers and staff sliding down steps and loosing footing in areas such as fire exits. Bolt Down Plates help provide anti slip support on a wide range of surfaces, such as non slip tape for decking, and substrates and can be coated with Safety Grip self adhesive anti slip tape in many colours, including hazard warning chevrons and photoluminescent Glow In The Dark. The plates are available in a flat design for screwing onto a surface, or in a L-shape (120mm x 635mm x 45mm) for fixing to steps and stairs.
If using on ocean going boats or on substrates adjacent to sea water, the aluminium can corrode due to galvanic reaction. Please contact our sales team on 0113 2455450 to enquire regarding Stainless Steel Bolt Down Plates.
See the videos above for more details and for application.
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.
