Expert Insights

The 11.75-inch depth fiberglass step cover is the most comprehensive tread protection option available, covering nearly the entire stair tread walking surface with a generous 2-inch nosing overhang. This 11.75" x 24" medium grit model provides excellent slip resistance while being gentler on footwear than the coarse option. Ideal for indoor commercial settings, office buildings, and healthcare facilities. Fiberglass is completely non-conductive, making these step covers ideal for electrical rooms and chemical processing areas. The yellow/black color scheme provides high-contrast visibility for stair edge identification. Installation can be done with industrial epoxy adhesive or mechanical fasteners. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.25 requires all stairway treads to have slip-resistant surfaces. Both medium and coarse grit options exceed OSHA coefficient of friction requirements.

Anti-Slip Stair Treads & Tape in Action

Chemical plants, water treatment facilities, offshore platforms, and food processing plants install fiberglass step covers on metal and concrete stairs where corrosion and chemical exposure destroy traditional treads. The non-conductive FRP material is specified in electrical substations and panel rooms where metal treads create electrocution risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

11.75"x 24" Fiberglass Step Cover - 11.75"Depth x 24"Length - 2" nosing - MEDIUM

Can these be cut to custom sizes?

Yes, fiberglass step covers can be cut with a carbide-tipped saw. Always wear proper PPE including eye protection and a dust mask when cutting fiberglass.

Indoor or outdoor use?

Both. These fiberglass step covers are UV-resistant and weather-rated for outdoor installation, and equally effective indoors. The fiberglass construction will not rust or corrode in any environment.

What is the difference between medium and coarse grit?

Medium grit provides excellent slip resistance while being gentler on footwear and skin. Coarse grit offers maximum traction for wet, oily, or heavy-traffic environments. Both exceed OSHA requirements.

How do I install step covers?

Two methods: adhesive bonding (epoxy recommended for permanent installation) or mechanical fastening with screws. Surface must be clean, dry, and free of debris for adhesive. Pre-drill fiberglass to prevent cracking when using screws.

Do these meet OSHA requirements?

Yes. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.25 requires slip-resistant surfaces on stairway treads. These silicon carbide grit step covers exceed OSHA coefficient of friction requirements for safe stairway access.

What Our Customers Say

Real reviews from the facilities, field crews, and agencies that count on us.

  • We installed these fiberglass step covers on all the exterior metal stairs at our water treatment plant. The old painted steps were slippery every time it rained. Now our operators walk confidently in any weather. The FRP material hasn’t corroded at all despite constant exposure to chemical splash. Installation was straightforward — just stainless screws into the existing metal treads.

  • Replaced the worn-out rubber treads on our factory mezzanine stairs with these fiberglass covers. The coarse grit surface provides incredible traction even when oil gets tracked onto the steps. The non-conductive material was a must for our electrical panel room stairs. Our safety team gave them a thumbs up at the quarterly inspection.

  • We order anti-slip products from AbsorbentsOnline for all 12 of our facilities nationwide. Their pricing is consistently 30-40% below what we were paying our old distributor, and they carry everything — tape rolls, die-cut treads, fiberglass covers, and aluminum nosings all from one source. The free shipping on every order adds up to thousands in annual savings. When we call, we get a real person who knows the product line. That kind of service is hard to find today.
