Description

 

Tyregrip is a highly durable, specialist hand machine applied coloured skid resistant surface treatment, consisting of a modified epoxy/amine binder which can be pigmented and dressed with natural coloured or pigmented aggregate, typically calcined bauxite or granite. It provides a well textured surface typically 5mm thick for the standard road grade and 2-3mm thick for the pedestrian grade.

 

Tyregrip is BBA certified for application on bituminous road surfaces only.

For non-BBA applications the system can be readily applied to machine compacted asphalt, macadam and concrete surfaces provided the latter is suitably primed.

Typical Applications

 

Tyregrip is available in two grades: a standard road grade which is ideal for traffic applications such as sharp bends, bridges, roundabouts, pedestrian crossing, junctions and other hazard sites; and a pedestrian grade for areas receiving foot/light traffic such as footpaths and cycleway.

 

Benefits

 

Tyregrip is BBA/HAPAS approved Type 1 conforming to Specification for Highway Works Clause 924 for High Friction Surfacing System, Certificate No. 05/H115.

Exceeds the minimum Highways Agency requirements for skid resistance and texture depth.

 

Variety of applications from foot/light traffic to road traffic from traffic calming to skid resistant requirements.

 

Manufactured to BS EN ISO 9001:2000 and Environmental Standard BS EN ISO 14001:2004 Quality Assurance.

 

Chemically cured tough and durable surface, which is resistant to oil, fuel and de-icing salts.

 

Very low odour compared to the alternative bitumen extended Suregrip system, giving off a more user friendly smell when being applied in areas of the general public, shops, homes and school’s etc.
