Skudo Traction Mat logo for heavy-duty non-slip peel-and-stick surface protection mat product by Skudo USA

Extra Slip-Resistant Solution Over Any Surface Type

Skudo Traction Mat is a permanent peel-and-stick carborundum mat delivering a safe, extra slip-resistant solution over any surface type, even when exposed to the elements. Grip Tape is a smaller version of Traction Mat and provides the same slip resistance and reliability.

This non-slip floor covering is great for high traffic areas, stair treads, ramps, scaffolding planks, driveways, and other potential slip hazard surfaces.

IMPORTANT: Unlike other Skudo products, Traction Mat heavy-duty non-slip flooring will permanently adhere to any surface it is applied to. We recommend using Traction Mat over another Skudo product, such as the Skudo Commercial System, Tack-Mat, or SkudoBoard, for a temporary solution.

Traction Mat

Traction Mat is applied by aligning the mat against the wall or surface edge, then peeling the release paper and pressing it down.

For best results, work in pairs and press the Traction Mat in with a dry paint roller.

IMPORTANT: Traction Mat will permanently adhere to any surface to which it is applied. Use in combination with another Skudo Product, such as Commercial System, Tack-Mat, or SkudoBoard, for a temporary solution.

  1. Peel back 3 to 4 feet of the release paper from the back of the mat. Fold this back underneath the Traction Mat roll.
  2. Align the roll to ensure a straight application. Attach the adhesive side to the surface and press the mat firmly.
  3. When first row is completed, begin the second row, overlapping the mat by 2 inches.
  4. Continue installing until the entire area is protected.
  5. Complete each row as above until your surface is covered.

Application on Stairs: Start at the bottom and pull the release paper up while moving the roll up the stairs. Press the Tack-Mat onto all the treads and risers.

  2. Attach the adhesive side to the surface and roll out to the desired length.
