508 Fine Particle Anti-Slip Additive is a micronized polymer bead which can be added to coatings and sealers to impart a lightly textured finish, which increases slip resistance.
The rounded shape of 508 Fine Particle Anti-Slip Additive provides optimum abrasion resistance without sharp edges, allowing ease of surface cleaning.
The product is also gentle on bare feet, allowing its use on pool decks and patios etc.
The product comes in three grades;
- 125 micron
- 250 micron
- 500 micron

Features & Benefits
- Increases slip resistance
- Added to coatings and sealers to impart a lightly textured finish
- Provides optimum abrasion resistance without sharp edges
- The product is gentle on bare feet, allowing its use on pool decks and patios
- Comes in three grades
- Non-Toxic
- Controlled particle distribution gives uniform finish
- Economical
- Good balance between slip resistance and ease of cleaning
Pack Sizes
Supplied in pre-weighed amounts corresponding to the size of the pack it is being added to.
Generally, this is 200g per 5kg/lt of coating.
Please note:
- The 125 micron grade is generally used in single pack coatings and sealers only.
- The 125 micron grade is used primarily for water based and solvented coatings.
- High build coatings often use the larger 500 micron grade size - however care must be taken with this size with dispersion and application to ensure even distribution and uniform appearance.
Recommended Uses
In coatings and sealers to impart a lightly textured finish that increases slip resistance. E.g. Factory floors, driveways, garages, wet rooms etc.
Procedure
508 Fine Particle Anti-Slip Additive is added to the mixed coating and stirred thoroughly prior to application.
PTV Results
A wet PTV of >36 is considered 'low slip potential'. The 250 micron grade was used for all of the above tests at an addition rate of 2.4%.
