We recently added to our line of anti-slip floor products a wonderful product that has been around for quite a few years, and adds an excellent amount of grip to showers and tubs. The ASTM published very bad test methods for measuring the slip resistance of tubs, and therefore most tubs and showers in an aging America are now very slippery when wet.
We have the ASTM F13 committee and the leaders of the ASTM, who fail repeatedly to police their own committees publishing bad tests, to thank for every slip injury and death occurring in tubs and showers across the country.
Kahuna Grip has fantastic slip resistance when it gets wet, and it comes in clear, white, many other colors, and some fantastic designs to add some fun artwork to your slippery tub or shower. Kahuna Grip has a wet pendulum test value (PTV) of 57 with soft rubber, which mimics bare feet. According to the United Kingdom’s Health and Safety Executive, anything above a PTV of 36 is considered “low slip potential”. A PTV of 57 means Kahuna Grip has got some great slip resistance for tubs and showers, and we’re convinced that they make a superb addition to our line of products here at the Ant-Slip Floor Superstore!
Above are just a few of the awesome designs available through Safety Direct America, and you can also cover nasty stains in your tub with a white piece of Kahuna Grip. Here is the full array of designs and colors now available.
Stickers, of course, require a smooth and clean surface to stick to, so if you don’t have that, then stickers will not stick. In that case, we suggest using our SparkleTuff™ Anti-Slip Floor Coating, which will stick to absolutely anything and make tubs and showers of all kinds slip resistant with a clear coating.
If you’ve got a slippery tub or slippery shower, then get a grip with Kahuna Grip!
