H2O Non-Slip Pool Tread, Yellow, 2 x 24 In

Description

The H2O non-slip pool tread gives swimmers secure footing on pool steps, ladders, and platforms that turn slick once wet. This yellow tread measures 2 inches by 24 inches and bonds directly to the pool surface with H2O Glue AquaBonder underwater adhesive, sold separately or as part of a repair kit. Unlike deck traction strips that only work above the waterline, this tread is built to be applied and cured while fully submerged, so a mid-season repair does not mean draining the pool.

Where the Non-Slip Pool Tread Fits

• Vinyl-liner pool steps and shallow-end platforms
• Fiberglass pool and spa steps
• Concrete and gunite pool steps, provided the surface is sound and free of loose paint or plaster
• Ladder treads and underwater handrail platforms
• Commercial and municipal pools where slip resistance is required at entry points

Installation happens with the pool full. Apply H2O AquaBonder to the back of the tread, press the strip into place on the step or platform, and wipe away excess adhesive with a cloth while still underwater. Weighting the tread down with a brick or dive weight for about 30 minutes lets it contour to the surface and pull a tighter bond before foot traffic returns. The tread material resists UV fading and chlorine exposure, so color stays consistent through a full pool season.

Non-Slip Pool Tread Specs

• Color: Yellow
• Size: 2 in x 24 in per strip
• Format: tread only, adhesive sold separately
• Recommended adhesive: H2O Glue AquaBonder underwater adhesive
• Application: bonds above or below the waterline
• Substrate compatibility: PVC, ABS, acrylic, fiberglass, and vinyl liner pool surfaces (gunite and bare concrete need a compatible primer first)

Order by the strip or in multiples for full-step coverage, and pair it with an AquaBonder cartridge and mixing nozzle kit if adhesive is not already on hand. Once bonded, the strip becomes a permanent slip-resistant surface rather than a removable mat, which matters for commercial pools that get inspected for slip resistance on entry steps.
