Set of two VidaXL aluminium plates with a raised (convex) pattern, each measuring 100 x 30 cm. These non-slip aluminium plates deliver surface traction and basic protection for floors, ramps, steps, or vehicle beds. Made from corrosion-resistant aluminium, the plates combine low weight with mechanical durability, making them suitable for industrial, workshop, garage or outdoor environments where a textured metal surface is required.
Advantages
The raised pattern creates improved grip and reduces the risk of slipping on inclined or wet surfaces while keeping the overall weight low thanks to the aluminium construction. The plates resist rust and are easy to handle and install. Their flat rectangular shape provides wide coverage and a uniform textured surface for added safety and basic wear protection.
Suitable for
- Covering ramps and loading areas to increase traction
- Floor protection in workshops, garages and utility rooms
- Non-slip step treads for temporary or semi-permanent installations
- Vehicle bed lining to reduce load movement and protect surfaces
When it may not be suitable
These aluminium plates provide basic protection and slip resistance but are not designed as a structural flooring solution or as primary impact protection against heavy, concentrated loads. They are not intended for continuous high-temperature exposure or for environments where chemical attack from strong acids or alkalis is expected without additional protective measures.
Key specifications
- Material: aluminium with raised (convex) surface pattern
- Dimensions (each): 100 x 30 cm
- Pack contents: set of 2 plates
- Surface: textured non-slip pattern for improved traction
- Corrosion resistance: inherent to aluminium (anodising or coatings not specified)
- Weight: lightweight metal construction for easier handling
How to use
Position the plates on the target surface, ensuring full contact with the substrate. For semi-permanent or permanent installations, secure the plates using appropriate fasteners or adhesive compatible with aluminium and the mounting surface. Clean the substrate and the plates before installing to ensure good adhesion or mechanical fixing. For vehicle beds or ramps, place plates so that edges are aligned to avoid trip hazards and check fastenings periodically for corrosion or loosening.
What to consider before purchase
- Confirm the plate dimensions and number of pieces meet your coverage requirements
- Verify the mounting method and select suitable fasteners or adhesives for aluminium
- Assess load types and peak forces expected; these plates are for surface protection and traction rather than heavy structural support
- Consider environmental exposure (saltwater, chemicals) and whether additional coatings are needed
Usage recommendations
For best results, clean and degrease both mounting surface and plate contact areas before fixing. Use stainless steel or suitably corrosion-resistant fasteners in outdoor or humid conditions. Inspect periodically and tighten or replace fixings as needed to maintain safety and traction.
