The five-diamond grip strut pattern delivers dependable traction, significantly reducing slip risk on crowded walkways and platforms. By providing consistent surface texture under footwear, it improves worker safety and supports higher throughput in production lines, loading docks, and complex mezzanines. The design also helps compliance teams meet non-slip performance targets in high-traffic facilities, audits, and maintenance corridors, delivering measurable reductions in near-miss incidents. Constructed from 16-gauge steel with a stainless steel type 304 finish, this plank offers a robust load-bearing capacity alongside outstanding corrosion resistance. That combination extends service life in damp, washdown, chemical-exposure, and outdoor environments, reducing replacement frequency and maintenance cycles. The result is lower lifecycle costs and more predictable performance across multiple shifts, with less downtime due to surface degradation or pitting. Measuring 144 inches long by 11.75 inches wide with a 2 inch channel, the grip strut accommodates common framing and mounting schemes while minimizing field joints. The long length reduces splice points, speeding installation and improving project timelines, while the 2 inch channel size ensures compatibility with standard grating frames. This makes retrofits and new-build installations straightforward in manufacturing lines, warehouses, and process plants. Even at 3.7 pounds per piece, the grip strut balances durability with manageable handling, enabling faster on-site assembly and fewer crew hours. The light yet rugged construction supports easier cutting, fitting, and alignment, reducing labor costs and potential on-site damage during installation. Its precise dimensions also help align with adjacent grating and railing systems for a clean, integrated safety solution. OSHA compliant by design, this grating aligns with workplace safety requirements and supports environmental health and safety programs. The stainless finish further enhances longevity in corrosive or washdown environments, while the overall assembly promotes reliable non-slip performance that reduces risk and downtime. For asset-intensive facilities, using this product translates to lower maintenance overhead and a safer, more productive workspace. It also simplifies regulatory reporting by providing documented specifications and a proven track record in safe operation.
