Eaton 53012 10 GL Grip Strut - OSHA Compliant
Part Number: 53012 10 GL
Quick Summary
Eaton 53012 10 GL Grip Strut plank is engineered to deliver safe, non-slip footing on industrial walkways, platforms, and mezzanines. When footing is slick or uneven, production slows and safety risks rise; this grip strut helps maintain traction under heavy use. The design is OSHA compliant and built from durable 12-gauge steel with a mill-galvanized finish, ready for challenging environments. With a 120 inch length, 11.75 inch width, and a 3 inch channel, it joins seamlessly with standard framing and long service life, reducing maintenance cycles. This combination of traction, strength, and corrosion resistance translates to lower downtime and improved worker confidence in demanding facilities.

FAQs
Begin by aligning the plank to the channel frame, ensuring end supports and fastener holes line up with predrilled points. Use compatible hardware to secure the plank to the channel, then confirm a flush, gap-free seating across the entire span. Verify anchorage and load path continuity per Eaton installation guidelines to maintain OSHA compliance and long-term durability.
The five diamond Grip Strut surface provides high slip resistance suitable for demanding walkways and platforms. The 12 gauge steel construction offers robust load capacity for typical industrial traffic. For exact load ratings and performance curves, consult the Eaton Gratings Specifications and Datasheets; use those figures to determine suitability for your specific use case and safety requirements.
Yes. The mill-galvanized finish delivers excellent corrosion resistance, making it appropriate for outdoor installations and washdown areas. When selecting for outdoor use, ensure guardrails, drainage, and cleaning regimes are compatible with galvanized steel to maximize lifespan and minimize maintenance costs.
This model is OSHA Compliant, meeting standard safety requirements for industrial gratings. Detailed certification and specification documents are available in Eaton’s downloadable resources, including specification sheets and grating catalogs. If CE or other regional certifications are required, verify with Eaton’s documentation or contact technical support for confirmation.
The mill-galvanized finish and 12 gauge steel combine to resist corrosion and wear, reducing repainting or replacement needs. Easy installation minimizes labor time, while improved traction lowers slip-related incidents. Over time, this translates to lower maintenance costs and better uptime, delivering a favorable return on investment for safety-critical walkways and platforms.
