SeraPool Olympic Petit Carre L-Shape Step Tread 10x12 is a 10x12 in. Petit Carre porcelain L-shape step tread that wraps the nose of each pool step, with right and left end pieces for the ends of a run. A contrasting colored nosing marks every step edge clearly under water, which is a safety requirement in most commercial pools. It is part of the SeraPool Olympic™ Commercial & Competition Pool Collection, a complete porcelain system of edge tiles, deck tiles, depth markers, pool tile, mosaics, overflow channels and gutter grates for commercial and competition pools.
Fully glazed versions carry the color across the whole piece; semi-glazed versions combine a colored nosing with an unglazed slip-resistant tread.
