Grip Strut® Safety Grating

Grip Strut Plank Grating is a one-piece metal plank grating manufactured by a cold forming process in the shape of a channel. The web of the channel is the walking surface and has rough serrated edges around diamond shaped openings. Diamond openings are complete with radiused corners at the saddle and side channel locations.

These nonslip diamond serrated surfaces are ideal for inside or outside locations where mud ice snow oil and detergents can create hazardous walking conditions openings are small enough to catch most following tools and other dangerous objects . While the maintenance-free open design permits quick drainage of fluids chips grease and mud any ice accumulation shears easily under normal foot pressure open design allows convenient access for cleaning.

These light easy to handle planks make installation simpler and quicker they can be handled by one man most sections are rapidly bolted clamp or welded into place easily fill cut at virtually any angle or forever catered to adapt to field conditions consult your Marco specialty steel technical sales consultant to discuss how we can custom fabricate your grip strut grating panels to see your specific project requirements.

Grip Strut Grating from Marco specialty steel is often used for ice bridge kits to support and protect cable spans between towers and shelters. All components are galvanized to ensure long term integrity in extreme environmental conditions, especially ice and snow
