Non Slip Grip

The Non Slip Grip comes in an A4 sheet format then can be cut to the size required.

Attach to the base of the Stix2 Layer Perfect, rulers or even quilter's and draughtsmen's tools to stop them from slipping and moving about when drawing lines, creating tailors markings or when cutting material, paper and card etc.

Simply cut to size, place on the back of the tool and press down firmly which creates a perfect seal but can be taken off if desired.



The Non Slip Grip is Clear so will no hinder clear tools, such as the Layer Perfect,  in any way and is removable and reusable.

For more information please contact 0191 2697810 or sales@stix2.co.uk
