GripSafe
Reflective Tape prevents mat movement even in the
most heavily trafficked work areas. Designed for use on concrete
(sealed or unsealed), terrazzo, tile or even vinyl, this sturdy
tape
will hold rubber and vinyl anti-fatigue mats in place. GripSafe
can
also be used to designate specific areas or pathways both inside
and out. It can be adhered to asphalt and will withstand
the
abuse of car, truck and tow-motor traffic. For best results,
clean the floor surface and it allow to dry before installation,
then
apply GripSafe to the lengths of the mat. If the mat is a large
custom size or over 6 wide, it is best to use the tape
on all sides.
Available in rolls only. |

Ways
to Prevent Movement
|
|
Mats
move, but this can be prevented. The amount of movement
depends on the type of mat, the amount of foot traffic
and the condition of the floor surface in the work environment.
The fact that mats move is a basic rule and can be
explained by the principles of physics. The force of a human
being moving forward in a walking gait tends to push
any uninstalled floor surface forward. However, there are
ways to stop or inhibit this movement. |
|
1.
Install your mats. There are some matting products
that are designed to be installed. ErgoDeck®
is an
excellent example. Its wide edging has bolt
holes to allow the mat to be permanently anchored to the
floor. |
|
2.
Buy sponge-backed mats with a higher
underside coefficient of friction. This is especially
important if your facility
has smooth epoxy-covered floors. A natural
rubber sponge is the best option in this case. Slip-Resistant
Diamond-Plate No. 418 was designed
just for this specific situation. The rubber sponge will move
much less than
any other because its cell structure is exposed
and the compound has a much higher COF. |
|
3.
Tape the mats to the floor with an
industrial strength tape. This is a good solution
if you cannot tolerate any mat
movement. In a high traffic area however,
the tape may begin to fray after several months of usage and
will need to
be replaced. |
|
4.
Adhere the mats to the floor using
either a high quality rubber or vinyl glue. This
is also an option if you are
worried about any mat movement. Contact your
local hardware store for the best rubber, vinyl or silicone
glue. |
