Description
This lozenge anti-skate stud is manufactured from 316L stainless steel and has a machine-polished finish. It is designed to sit flush on walls, planters or furniture, with a 5mm radius as standard, blending neatly into the surrounding aesthetic.
The Lozenge Anti-Skate Stud provides an effective skate deterrent by interrupting the continuous edges skaters need to grind or slide, helping to protect walls, furniture and other architectural surfaces from damage.
Material Information
This stud is manufactured from high-quality 316L stainless steel for long-term external use. The material provides excellent corrosion resistance and is particularly well suited to demanding outdoor environments where the stud may be exposed to rain, snow, moisture and other weather conditions.
Design
The stud has a lozenge-shaped design with a rounded head. The body extends backwards and lies flat against the surface on which it is installed.
Its extended length provides good coverage along the edge of a wall, bench or other surface, interrupting a larger section of the line that could otherwise be used for grinding.
Two equal-length M8 fixing studs provide additional stability and help secure the deterrent firmly to the substrate.
The standard 5mm radius means the profile of the installation surface should be checked before specifying the product. See
