High Friction Thermoplastic Preformed Sheets

Gripstrip is an anti-skid, self-adhesive, overbanding joint
and crack sealing tape. Gripstrip consists of an extruded
bituminous compound modified with elastomers and fast-bonding resins.

WHERE TO USE?
Horizontal cracks in asphaltic roads
Transverse and longitudinal joints
Trench reinstatements
Patch repairs
Drain or manhole frames

PREPARATION
Ensure that the joint or crack is dry, clean and free from
dust, fuel and oil spillage. For best results, use when
the ambient temperature is 15°C or above. Gripstrip should
not be applied to cracks wider than 10mm unless the
crack has been pre-filled with approved material such as
Jointfill A2, Jointfill N1 & N2 or Leoseal R.

APPLICATION
Gripstrip is applied to the road surface manually or with
a specially adapted trolley. It is self-adhesive with the
underside protected by peel-off backing paper.
Once laid, heavy foot pressure should be applied to assist
adhesion. Applied Gripstrip will become embedded
through trafficking.

COVERAGE
Each roll will overband 25 linear metres.

PACKAGING
Gripstrip is supplied in a box with 2 x 40mm x 25m rolls.

STORAGE
Keep dry. Store under cover.

STANDARDS
Gripstrip has a skid resistance value of ≥60 and therefore
complies with the requirements of the New Roads and
Street Works Act.
