Steel Stair Tread Chequer Nosing, 43 x 25mm, 2 Metre Length, Self Colour

A 43 x 25mm chequer plate steel stair tread nosing, in a 2 metre length. It is a plain steel L section with a raised chequer pattern on its top face, made to give the front of a step a firm, slip-resistant edge. It is supplied self colour, in raw steel, and can be cut to size on site or in the workshop. Use it to retrofit existing stairs, or on new work where the front edge needs extra grip and durability. The price shown is for one 2 metre length.

Why choose this nosing

Grip where it counts. A step is most often missed at its front edge. The chequer pattern gives a boot a raised surface to land on.

Simple L section. The 43mm top face sits on the tread and the 25mm front leg runs down the front of the step, covering the worn or damaged edge.

Cuts to length. Each 2 metre length can be cut to the width of your step with a saw or grinder, on site or in the workshop, so one length can cover two or more narrower steps.

Strong in traffic. Steel stands up to boots, trolleys and knocks that would wear out a softer edge, which suits busy commercial stairs.

Takes your finish. Self colour steel can be galvanised or painted to match the rest of the stair.

Where it is used

Commercial and residential staircases, industrial stairways, retrofits to existing steel stairs, and repairs where only the front edge of a tread has worn. It also suits fabrication shops making up their own treads and steps.

Specifications

Is this the right nosing?

Measure the depth of the step edge you want to cover. Choose the profile that suits it, then allow for the number of steps and the width of each.

You can also see all stair treads, clips and flooring.

Fitting and care

Cut the length to the width of your step and clean the mating surfaces. On steel stairs, weld or bolt the nosing along the front edge of the tread, and make sure it sits tight so that nothing can catch a foot. Fixing method and fixings depend on what you are fixing to, and are not included.

Raw steel rusts outdoors, so galvanise or prime and paint it before use, and treat every cut end. Check it from time to time for loose fixings or wear, particularly on the front edge where most of the traffic lands.
