Premium EPS Corner Step 1575 x 1200mm with 6″ Radius Design
As a retailer of hot tub spare parts and pool accessories, I’m excited to offer this professional-grade EPS corner step system that transforms pool access with its innovative design and superior construction. This 1575 x 1200mm corner step features a sophisticated 6-inch radius corner design that not only enhances safety but adds an elegant, contemporary aesthetic to any pool installation.
Revolutionary Construction Technology
This corner step represents the latest advancement in pool access solutions, constructed from high-density 25kg/m³ EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) core that delivers exceptional strength while maintaining lightweight handling characteristics. The EPS block foundation provides outstanding buoyancy control and structural integrity, making it ideal for both residential and commercial pool applications.
Advanced Magnelis Steel Protection System
The entire unit is clad in shaped Magnelis steel sheeting, a revolutionary metallic coating that provides up to three times better corrosion resistance than traditional galvanized steel. This innovative zinc-aluminum-magnesium alloy (93.5% zinc, 3.5% aluminum, 3% magnesium) creates an unprecedented level of surface protection with remarkable self-healing properties.
The Magnelis coating generates a dense protective film when exposed to the environment, automatically forming protective layers on cut edges, welds, perforations, and scratches. This makes it particularly suited for pool environments, offering exceptional resistance in chloride conditions with significantly reduced zinc runoff compared to conventional coatings.
Design Excellence and Safety Features
The 6-inch radius corner design represents a perfect balance of form and function. This gentle curve eliminates sharp edges that could pose safety risks while creating smooth transitions that enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of your pool area. The generous 1575 x 1200mm dimensions provide ample space for comfortable and secure entry and exit, accommodating users of all ages and abilities.
Enhanced Pool Integration
This versatile step system is engineered to suit pools with wall depths ranging from 1020mm to 1500mm, making it compatible with a wide variety of pool configurations. The design works seamlessly with both 90-degree corner installations and 6-inch radius corner pools, offering exceptional flexibility for different pool layouts.
Installation Advantages
Rapid Assembly System
One of the most compelling features of this step system is its remarkably simple installation process, requiring approximately one hour of assembly time with no specialist tools needed. This represents a significant advantage over traditional concrete or rendered step construction, which can take days to complete and requires specialized skills.
Complete Installation Package
Each step unit includes all necessary components for successful installation:
- Pre-applied contact adhesive for secure bonding
- Liner protection tape to prevent damage during installation
- Comprehensive assembly instructions
- All required fastening materials
The system eliminates the need for concreting or rendering, dramatically reducing installation complexity and associated costs. The lightweight construction makes handling and positioning straightforward, even in tight spaces.
Liner Compatibility and Protection
This step system demonstrates exceptional versatility in liner compatibility, working effectively with both factory-manufactured and site-applied vinyl linings. The design incorporates specific protection measures to prevent liner damage during installation and throughout the step’s operational life.
For installations using bag-style liners, the system requires a minimum of 150mm of water above the top tread to ensure proper operation and prevent flotation issues. This specification ensures optimal performance while maintaining the integrity of your pool’s liner system.
Professional Installation Considerations
Drainage Requirements
Proper under-pool drainage is essential for optimal performance, as water accumulation behind the pool liner can cause the EPS step to lift or shift position. Professional installation should include adequate drainage systems designed to match specific ground conditions and maintain a dry pool shell environment.
Structural Performance
The step system is engineered to handle normal pool usage loads while maintaining structural integrity over extended periods. The combination of high-density EPS core and Magnelis steel cladding creates a robust structure that resists deformation and maintains its shape under regular use.
Environmental and Sustainability Benefits
The Magnelis coating system offers significant environmental advantages, using substantially less zinc than traditional pure zinc coatings while providing superior protection. The reduced zinc consumption helps preserve natural resources, and the lower zinc runoff rate minimizes environmental impact during the product’s operational life.
The EPS core material is fully recyclable at end of life, contributing to sustainable pool construction practices. The extended service life provided by the Magnelis coating also reduces replacement frequency, further enhancing the environmental profile.
Applications and Versatility
This corner step system excels in various pool environments:
- Residential pools: Perfect for family pools requiring safe, attractive access solutions
- Commercial installations: Suitable for hotels, health clubs, and public facilities
- Retrofit projects: Ideal for upgrading existing pools with modern access systems
- New construction: Integrates seamlessly with contemporary pool designs
