Nonskid magnetized safety mat incorporating nonskid flex hinged location for providing adhering support when placed upon a metal roof
An anti-skid mat utilized in the field of metal roofing and including a skid-resistant material exhibiting flexible properties and having a generally planar configuration with a length, width and thickness. A plurality of hinges or flex lines design into the material and which enable the material to conform to any irregular surface associated with the metal roof. Said material having a magnetic attracting underside such that placement of the material upon the metal roof securely supports the weight of a user standing on the mat without slippage relative to the roof.
1. An antiskid mat adapted to being applied atop a ferritic metal roof, comprising:
a body having a single layer incorporating a first plurality of skid-resistant and flexible strips in combination with an alternating second plurality of flex-hinged connecting and magnetic strips;
said body exhibiting flexible properties and having a generally planar shape with a length, width and thickness; and
said body having an antiskid exterior surface and a magnetic attracting underside such that placement of said material upon the metal surface is adapted to securely support the weight of a user supported on the mat without slippage relative to the roof.
