Flexible PVC Anti-Slip Stair Nosing 48x29mm, 3.22m, Bends to Curved & Splayed Steps

Bends to the shape of the stair

This is a flexible one-piece PVC nosing, not a rigid bar. It can be eased around curved, splayed and tapered steps that an aluminium profile will not follow, and around winders and quarter-landings where a straight nosing would have to be mitred or left short. On straight flights it fits exactly as any other nosing does.

That flexibility also makes it the quicker installation: no drilling, no fixings to sink, and no cut-and-mitre work at changes of direction. It is a cost-effective alternative to a traditional aluminium nosing where the priority is grip and edge definition rather than heavy impact resistance.

Profile and supply

48mm across the tread, 29mm down the riser, 3mm thick, supplied in 3.22m lengths. The top face is ribbed for grip and the underside is serrated so that adhesive keys into it. Cut to length on site with a fine-toothed saw or a sharp knife.

This PVC anti slip stair nosing provides a neat, durable and cost-effective finish to stair edges in both residential and commercial environments. Designed to cap and protect the front edge of each step, it helps to prevent chipping and wear while giving a smart, defined transition between treads and risers.

With a 48 x 29 mm profile, this stair nosing offers reliable slip resistance on the step edge, improving safety on internal staircases with carpet, vinyl or painted timber finishes. Ideal for homes, offices, schools, retail premises and shared stairwells, it is suitable for new installations or refurbishments where a practical, low-maintenance edge protection is required.
