Mebac® Surfaced Rungs and Rung Covers

Ladders are one place where slips tend to have the most extreme consequences. Mebac® slip-resistant coating is ideal for use in the fabrication of ladders of all types. For new construction, IKG offers Mebac® surfaced ladder rungs; for retrofitting existing ladders, we offer Mebac® easy to install rung covers.

Finishes

• Mill Finish Carbon Steel Mebac® will rust readily if exposed to moisture. Care must be taken during transit and storage to protect from moisture. IKG recommends a quality rust inhibitive coating be applied after application of Mill Finished Steel Mebac® to protect the surface from rusting
