Guaranteed Savings, Tarkett Oak Alley Color Splash Gray Stair Tread 72 inch x 12.25 inch delivers consistent traction and lasting durability for demanding stairways. This stair tread stands out for its substantial profile: at a full 72 inches in length with a 12.25-inch width, it's sized to fit most standard commercial steps in a single piece. That translates to faster installs and fewer seams-practical for property managers needing to keep corridors functional and visually uniform across every floor. The raised square rubber surface isn't just about looks; it provides needed grip, so foot traffic moves safely, even when stairwells get busy or see variable conditions throughout the day.
The gray color-neutral without feeling cold-works especially well in institutional, retail, or multi-use buildings aiming for a look that's clean but not distracting. Facility managers will appreciate that scuffs, dust, and marks are far less visible on this finish than on lighter alternatives. What's more, repeated cleaning cycles or high equipment traffic won't cause rubber to lose its integrity or uniform surface texture, which can be an issue with other materials over time. That's one less maintenance concern when you're equipping schools, corporate lobbies, or municipal spaces.
The 5-year warranty is a realistic benefit, not an empty gesture. In public and high-use settings, it pays to have a flooring component built for daily footfalls and the occasional cart or rolling chair. The square raised tread pattern is a smart choice for reducing slip incidents, adding just enough height to disrupt slick-soled shoes without collecting debris. That sound-dampening quality of rubber also comes into play here-footsteps stay quieter, which helps with noise management in stairwells that sit near offices or living spaces.
This stair tread is Made in the United States, supporting projects with local sourcing requirements and giving specifiers confidence in supply and quality consistency. Sold without adhesive, it gives you flexibility to use the appropriate adhesive for the specific job site-an advantage when navigating code requirements or existing subfloor conditions. Accessories and compatible pieces for risers and transitions can be easily matched to keep a cohesive look from landing to landing.
If you're looking for an option that balances immediate appearance with long-term function-especially for high-traffic environments-the Oak Alley Color Splash tread is a top contender. Full specifications and ordering options are detailed on the official listing here. Every element, from the 72-inch length and 12.25-inch width to the square raised profile and five-year warranty, is engineered for those who prioritize reliability, ease of installation, and minimal maintenance in commercial or public stairways.
