Core Function: Increases coefficient of friction to prevent slips, trips, and falls; mitigates liability and accident costs. 

Shape-Specific Benefits:  

Dots: Offer ergonomic comfort (less abrasive underfoot), enhanced fluid drainage (ideal for wet areas), and flexibility for contoured surfaces. 

Squares: Provide maximum contiguous traction, structural stability against tearing at pivot points, and defined edge coverage. 

Sheets: Adaptable for irregular areas and provide broad coverage for high-traffic zones. 

Applications:  

• Industrial: Machine platforms, pedals, manufacturing floors, loading docks, and wet processing facilities. 
• Commercial/Public: Stairs, ramps, building entrances, schools, hospitals, and kitchens. 
• Marine/Vehicle: Boat decks, vehicle interiors, and truck beds. 
• Entertainment: Gaffer's tape for stage marking and cable management. 

Material Composition:  

• Grit Tape: Mineral-coated plastic film with abrasive particles (e.g., aluminum oxide, silicon carbide). 
• Vinyl Tape: Characterized by moderate tensile strength, high elongation, and good tear strength. 
• Gaffer’s Tape: Heavy-duty vinyl-coated cotton. 

Adhesive: Robust, pressure-sensitive adhesive. 

Formats/Shapes:  

• Dots: Raised, spaced pattern. 
• Squares: Uniform, four-sided continuous abrasive patch. 
• Sheets: Large format for broad coverage. 
• Strips: Linear geometry (implied). 

Aesthetic/Functional: Black, Gray, Clear. 

Application Temperature: Recommended 50°F and above (for Grit and Vinyl Safety tapes). 

Surface Compatibility: Clean, dry, lubrication-free surfaces.
