Ecoglo® N-Series non-slip stair strips are rigid aluminum-backed step-edge safety products with hard-wearing silicon-carbide traction surfaces. They are designed for retrofit installation on concrete, wood and metal stairs and provide both anti-slip protection and visible stair-edge color contrast.
The primary difference is strip width. N20 measures 1½ inches wide, N30 measures 2 inches wide, and N40 measures 3.1 inches wide. All three are designed to provide durable anti-slip protection on concrete, wood and metal stairs using the recommended polyurethane adhesive installation.
The N20 Series is 1½ inches wide. The current ComposiGrip collection includes N2070 Black, N2060 Gray and N2050 Yellow N20 stair strips.
The N30 Series is 2 inches wide. It provides excellent anti-slip protection and step-edge color contrast and is available from ComposiGrip in black, gray and yellow.
N40 is Ecoglo®'s wider 3.1-inch non-slip stair strip. The manufacturer describes it as a durable anti-slip strip for concrete, wood and metal stairs installed using the recommended polyurethane adhesive. Contact ComposiGrip for current N40 project availability.
The current N20 and N30 ranges are available in black, gray and yellow. The color should be selected to provide suitable contrast against the surrounding stair tread while matching the project's visual requirements.
Yes. Ecoglo® specifically identifies concrete stair treads as suitable substrates for the N20, N30 and N40 strip families when installed using the recommended polyurethane adhesive and an appropriate surface-preparation method.
Yes. Ecoglo® identifies both wood and metal stair treads, along with concrete, as compatible N-Series applications. Installation should still be matched to the actual substrate, surface condition and project environment.
Ecoglo® recommends a premium polyurethane adhesive for a permanent and reliable installation. Mechanical fasteners are optional for some applications, but the manufacturer states that mechanical fasteners should not be used for outdoor installations.
Yes. Ecoglo® describes N-Series strips for indoor and outdoor use and reports successful testing for accelerated UV/weathering, salt-spray resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and washability. Follow the current outdoor installation instructions for the selected product.
Ecoglo® lists 8 ft and 10 ft as standard manufacturer lengths and offers cut-to-length sizes with an approximate ±1/8-inch tolerance. Current ComposiGrip N20 and N30 listings also offer 2 ft, 4 ft, 6 ft, 8 ft and 10 ft sizes.
Ecoglo® lists the N20 at approximately 0.122 lb per linear foot and the N30 at approximately 0.164 lb per linear foot. Confirm the exact length and quantity when calculating shipping or project weights.
No. N20, N30 and N40 are non-photoluminescent anti-slip stair strips. Their safety function comes from durable traction and visible step-edge color contrast. If a project requires luminous or glow-in-the-dark step-edge markings, use an Ecoglo® photoluminescent contrast strip instead.
Ecoglo® describes the N-Series as recyclable aluminum-based products with no disposal cost and identifies the product family as LEED-points qualified.
