Anti-slip tape 3M SW1SC50 50 mm x 18.30 m — black, self-adhesive

Self-adhesive anti-slip tape 3M SW1SC50 in black, 50 mm wide and 18.30 m long provides a durable non-slip surface for stairs, ramps and walkways. The tape features a coarse abrasive top layer bonded to a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing that allows fast application to clean, dry surfaces. Intended for industrial, commercial and domestic settings, the tape helps reduce the risk of slips and improves traction in areas with foot traffic or light vehicle movement.

Advantages

The tape combines a hard-wearing abrasive surface with a reliable self-adhesive backing for long-lasting grip and simple installation without special tools. Its narrow 50 mm width makes it suitable for step edges and narrow pathways, while the 18.30 m roll length allows coverage of multiple locations from a single roll. The black finish provides a neutral appearance that blends with most flooring and stair materials.

Suitable for

• Stair nosings and step edges
• Ramps and inclined walkways
• Entrance areas and thresholds
• Industrial and commercial pedestrian routes
• Domestic kitchens, bathrooms and outdoor steps

Key specifications

• Width: 50 mm
• Length: 18.30 m per roll
• Colour: black
• Surface: abrasive, coarse grit for traction
• Adhesive: pressure-sensitive self-adhesive backing
• Application temperature: suitable for use on clean, dry surfaces
• Installation: peel-and-stick application

How to use

Prepare the surface by cleaning it thoroughly to remove dust, oil, grease and loose particles; ensure the area is dry before application. Measure and cut the required length from the roll. Peel back a portion of the release liner and align the tape with the target edge or surface. Press firmly from the center outward to ensure even contact and adhesion, and use a roller or firm pressure to work out air bubbles and secure full bond. For high-traffic or outdoor installations, allow adhesive to set according to ambient conditions before heavy use.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, apply the tape at temperatures recommended for pressure-sensitive adhesives (typically above 10°C). On porous or rough substrates, consider preparing the surface with a suitable primer to improve adhesion. Inspect and replace sections that show excessive wear or peeling to maintain effective slip resistance.
