COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION SCALE
HOW DOES YOUR FLOOR MEASURE UP?
The SCOF is a standard way to measure the traction of a floor. It is typically measured on a
scale of 0.00 (no traction) to 1.00 (very high traction). The Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) suggests a SCOF of 0.60 for flat surfaces and 0.80 for ramps.
The recommendations shown below have been issued by American National Standards
Institute (ANSI).

States at professional licensed facilities.
• How long will it take to get started? Most of our Solution Providers start approaching the market within a few days after training. Some have sold
jobs in the first week! We can ship all product and equipment within days after finalizing an Agreement.
• Do I receive a territory? Based upon your location, you will be included within the Metropolitan Statistical Area (“MSA”) for your home
ZIP Code, and this territory will be stated in your Agreement. The maximum number of active Solution Providers
within an MSA is limited based upon population density. As an independent contractor, you are not restricted

• Do I need a slip meter? We require that all Solution Providers perform COF tests to national industry standards to ensure the customer’s
flooring surfaces meet minimum ADA recommendations. A slip meter is included as part of the Package, and we
provide training on how to properly operate the equipment.
• Can training be held at my location or via Skype? We offer live training at our office in Carrollton, Texas. As an option, training via Skype is available at no extra
charge. We also offer training at your location for additional cost.
• What is the average cost per square foot? Your cost per square foot depends on the product and dilution ratio used. Using the Three-Step System, your
average product cost can be close to $0.02 per square foot. For a typical job of 2,000 sq ft, a Solution Provider’s
product cost could be less than $40.00.
• Are there possible legal implications to selling a solution to help prevent slip-and-fall
accidents? It is important to communicate to your customers that you are selling products to help increase traction. By
increasing a surface’s Coefficient of Friction (“COF”), the likelihood of a fall is reduced. SlipDoctors and its
Solution Providers should never promise to eliminate slip-and-fall accidents. If this is accurately communicated
verbally and in writing, then legal issues are avoided.
SAFETY FOR ALL FLOORS AND BATHTUBS
SlipDoctors offers a wide range of products to increase traction on almost
any type of surface to meet your customers’ needs. Ask us about Provider discounts!

product and environment. Solution Providers will include a two-year written warranty with any product
application.

• Do you offer solutions for wood, vinyl, VCT, metal, painted surfaces, sealed surfaces
or linoleum floors? Our Floor Grip, Dura Grip and Tuff Grip coatings are very effective on these surfaces. Contact us for specific
product information.
• Are any of the products endorsed by leading bathtub or shower manufacturers? We have documentation from major bathtub manufacturers stating that SlipDoctors products can be used and
