Benefits
Comfortable Underfoot
The resilient, textured surface is designed to provide slip resistance without the aggressive feel of conventional mineral-coated abrasive tapes.
Suitable for Barefoot Traffic
The 300 Series is particularly suited to areas where people may walk barefoot or where user comfort is important.
Reliable Slip Resistance
The textured surface helps improve traction in areas where water or other conditions may create a slipping risk.
Neutral Gray Appearance
Gray provides a less visually aggressive appearance than bright yellow or black/yellow safety tapes.
Easy Installation
The pressure-sensitive adhesive backing allows the tape to be applied to properly prepared surfaces.
Versatile Facility Applications
370 can be used in recreational facilities, locker rooms, around pools and other locations requiring a combination of traction and walking comfort.

Important: Exact thickness, dimensions, coefficient-of-friction values, temperature limits and other numerical properties can vary by specific 370 configuration and regional SKU. For your Yousan product page, I recommend using the current 3M TDS for the exact 370 SKU before publishing numerical technical specifications rather than inserting generic 300-Series values.

Why Choose
3M™ Safety-Walk™ 370 is designed for applications where slip resistance and user comfort need to work together.
Unlike the 3M Safety-Walk 600 Series, such as 610, 620 and 630, which use aggressive mineral-coated surfaces for general-purpose and heavier shoe traffic, the 300 Series 370 uses a softer, resilient surface intended for barefoot or light shoe traffic.
This makes 370 particularly suitable for locker rooms, swimming pool surroundings, recreational areas, fitness facilities and other locations where users may walk barefoot.
For a website product hierarchy, the positioning can be expressed as:
3M Safety-Walk 370 → 300 Series → Medium Resilient → Soft-Textured → Barefoot & Light Shoe Traffic
Installation Guide
1. Prepare the surface
Remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, wax and other contaminants.
2. Dry completely
Ensure the substrate is completely dry before application.
3. Check the substrate
Remove loose paint, damaged coatings or unstable surface material.
4. Measure and cut
Cut the 370 tape to the required length or shape.
5. Position carefully
Place the tape accurately before applying pressure.
6. Apply gradually
Press the tape from one end toward the other to minimize trapped air.
7. Apply firm pressure
Use a suitable hand roller to ensure good adhesive contact.
8. Secure the edges
Pay particular attention to edges in areas exposed to water or frequent cleaning.
9. Allow bonding time
Avoid heavy use immediately after installation and allow the adhesive to establish a secure bond.
Proper surface preparation is essential for achieving reliable long-term adhesion.
Storage
Store 3M™ Safety-Walk™ 370 in its original packaging in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture and contamination.
Protect the adhesive liner and textured surface from dirt and physical damage.
For commercial inventory, follow the storage temperature, humidity and shelf-life requirements specified on the packaging or current technical documentation for the exact SKU.
