Anti-Slip Traction Glass – by Bear Glass Inc.

Bear Glass offers Walker Textures™ Traction – the ultimate anti-slip glass flooring product. Multi-level acid-etching of the Traction surface provides an unprecedented design option by combining discretion and security without impeding the natural flow of light.

Traction is an all-glass flooring solution, using no coatings, paints or appliqués susceptible to chipping or flaking off. The slip resistant properties of Traction glass are entirely derived through acid etching, whereby portions of the glass surface are removed to varying depths by a controlled process. The result is attractive and durable anti-slip surfaces, characterized by striking designs. The unique combination of opacity and translucency provides for full privacy, while still allowing for maximum circulation of light between floors.

Static Coefficient of Friction (SCOF) – Wet Conditions

Pattern 406: 0.68
Pattern 407: 0.75

ASTM C1028: “Standard Test Method for Determining the Static Coefficient of Friction of Ceramic Tile and Other Like Surfaces by the Horizontal Dynamometer Pull-Meter Method”
Static Coefficient of Friction

 

Pattern 406
Dry: 0.76 Wet: 0.60

Pattern 407
Dry: 0.74 Wet: 0.60
