ebinmaine 67,502 #2 Posted May 30 I've been using skateboard tape for a few years. Poke around on the internet a little bit and you'll find quite a good many sources. I've even found different colors. I've also used stair tread tape in the past. Grainger sells that. Uline. Toro. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 8,322 #3 Posted May 30 (edited) HFT sells an adhesive backed diamond tread rubber - 12" x 12". One pass thru the table saw gets you 2 pcs 6" or so x 12" Works well. One of our vendors friends sells the ribbed rubber version... Edited May 30 by ri702bill 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlexR 627 #10 Posted June 27 (edited) This is what I used, I cut it in half so 12" long and then cut along the yellow strip discarded the small strips with the yellow on it and used the approx 5x12" pieces as the tread grips it's already got adhesive on it and it's a lot cheaper then buying a big roll of grip tape. https://www.menards.com/main/paint/adhesives-glue-tape/tape/tread-tape/skid-guard-trade-6-x-24-reflective-anti-slip-tread-tape/015735674129/p-1444444244318-c-7189.htm?exp=false Edited June 27 by AlexR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
