Xcellerator
Every frame is constructed of high-quality US stainless steel, but what really sets our blocks apart from our competitors is the superior nonslip surface. Xcellerato®r block tops are coated with a grit overlay that provides a level of traction not available in competing products, and our plastic block tops, which are made of low-density polyethylene, contain a superior, treaded surface that surpasses industry standards.
Our stainless steel block tops are coated with a grit overlay providing an incredible level of traction not available in competing products. Our plastic tops are made of low-density polyethylene and contain a non-slip surface that surpasses industry standards. Plastic tops are a great choice for facilities that remove and store the blocks frequently – durable and able to withstand strong pool chemicals – resisting discoloration, fading and cracking.
