What Is Anti-Slip Tape and Where Should You Use It?

Anti-slip tape is a peel-and-stick strip with a gritty, high-friction top layer. It's the fastest way to add traction to ramps, steps, ladders and more.

How traction tape works

A mineral-grit surface bonds to a strong adhesive backing. The grit gives shoes and bare feet something to bite into, even when wet.

Best places to use it

Ramps, stair edges, ladder rungs, boat decks, pool surrounds and garage steps all benefit from a few strips of traction tape.

Choosing the right grit

Finer grit is comfortable for bare feet; coarser grit grips shoes and heavy traffic. Match the surface to how it'll be used.
