Re-Grip ULTRA Stair Tread Covers

2 Our Re-Grip ULTRA Stair Tread Covers have been designed for high footfall applications. The tread covers can be retrofitted onto existing steps to create a high slip resistant access stairway, even in wet, oily or icy conditions. Our Re-Grip ULTRA Stair Tread Covers meet Disability Discrimination Act, 2004 (DDA) legislation and BS8300 Building Regulations.

3 Installation Preparation Ensure area is clean and dry, and free from loose and defective material. Any damaged surface areas should be patch repaired to provide a reasonably flat and consistent surface. Installation Dry fit all tread covers to ensure that they fit freely, and that they sit flat down onto the surface. If required, the covers can be trimmed on site to suit, using an industrial jigsaw and appropriate cutting blades. Drill the fixing locating holes in all the panels. Whilst individual circumstances will vary, the following can be used as a guide: Drill two holes on each side of the tread cover, one approx. 15mm in from the back edge and 15mm in from the side. The second one should again be approx. 15mm in from the side, and in line with the black and yellow dividing line. The first drilled cover can be used as a pattern for the rest of the covers. Mechanical fixings are all that is required to secure tread covers. However, the application of an appropriate high strength gap filling adhesive will provide additional fixing strength and a barrier against any 'drumming' noise that may be created when fitting a tread cover over the existing stair tread. Recommended Mechanical Fixings For wet and external applications we recommend the use of stainless steel fixings. All fasteners should feature low profile heads such as Truss Heads. 1. Fixing onto Timber Stainless Steel Flange Head Pozi 4.8 x 19mm 2. Fixing onto Steel Plate Stainless Steel Rivets 4.8 x 25mm o Align and position the Re-Grip ULTRA Stair Tread Cover over the Steel Plate. o Using a powered screw driver and M5 bit, drill through both, creating enough holes to permanently fix the Re-Grip ULTRA Stair Tread Cover. o Using a rivet gun, affix the Re-Grip ULTRA Stair Tread Cover to the Steel Plate. 3. Fixing onto Concrete 6 x 50mm stainless steel hammer fixings o Using a masonry drill bit, drill through the Re-Grip ULTRA Stair Tread Cover and into the substrate the required depth. o Hammer fix in for a secure fit. o If the fixing needs to be removed simply unscrew and remove. The fixing can be reused if it has not been bent or plug lost. Gap Filling Adhesive Apply a 6mm bead of the high strength gap-filling adhesive around the periphery of the panel, and in horizontal stripes at approximately 250mm centres. Press the panel firmly to the substrate immediately, to ensure adequate transfer of the adhesive. Secure with the mechanical fixings, and allow the adhesive sealant to cure before allowing excessive traffic to use the areas. Under normal circumstances and conditions, a firm bond will be achieved in about 1 hour. As a guide, one tube (290ml) of adhesive is sufficient for any one of the following: 5 No 600mm wide Stair Tread Covers or 3 no 1000mm wide Stair Tread Covers.

Vapours or products of thermal degradation generated by cutting or grinding may aggravate or cause respiratory conditions. NTP IARC Monographs OSHA Temporary Irritation and itching to skin or eyes. Scratchiness or burning of the nose and/or throat if exposed to large amounts of airborne dust from cutting or machining. Chronic Dermatitis or respiratory conditions Wash skin well without rubbing. For eyes, use a sterile solution and flood the eye area. Change clothing after exposure. Apply antiseptic to any abraded skin area. No material is released in the product s solid form. However, when cutting, grinding or machining, if airborne dust is generated, the wearing of respirators is recommended. Control and collect any dust. Place in sturdy containers for proper disposal. Control and collect any dust generated in sturdy containers to prevent dispersal. Dispose of in accordance with all local and government regulations. Generally the dust is not considered a hazardous waste. Do not allow dust to go uncontrolled Approved for dusts and mists not less than 00.1mg/m 3 Mechanical dust collector with local exhaust recommended at point of generation of any dust due to cutting or grinding. Wear gloves when handling product to prevent cuts, scratches or abrasions. Wear protective eye wear with side shields or ventilated goggles when cutting or grinding. Long sleeve shirts with closed collars, long trousers or protective clothing may be worn to prevent dust exposure when cutting or grinding product. Use personal protection equipment to minimize skin, respiratory and eye exposure to dust and fumes when cutting or grinding product. Wash all exposed skin areas thoroughly after cutting or grinding. Launder clothing separately and frequently to prevent skin exposure. We believe that the above information is valid and reliable.
