Eaton 53012 11.5 GL Grip Strut five diamond plank - OSHA Compliant
Part Number: 53012 11.5 GL
Quick Summary
Grip Strut five diamond plank from Eaton provides slip-resistant footing for industrial platforms and catwalks. Facility teams wrestle with slippery, wet or oily surfaces that can cause injuries during maintenance and inspections. OSHA Compliant safety grating is built from 12-gauge steel with a mill-galvanized finish, extending service life in harsh environments. The 11.75 in wide, 3 in high profile and 138 in long length minimizes field joints, simplifying installation and reducing labor time. Weighing about 7 lb per plank, it offers a balance of strength and manageability. Compatible with Eaton’s B-Line channel systems, including a 3 in channel, it integrates with other safety grating components for turnkey mezzanine and platform projects.

FAQs
Plan for a clean, level substrate and allow for proper anchoring within the 3 in channel system. Verify joint spacing and overlap to maintain slip resistance across long runs. Use compatible fasteners and follow Eaton’s installation guidelines to ensure uniform load transfer and uninterrupted traction across the plank lengths.
The 12-gauge steel provides robust structural strength while the mill-galvanized coating offers corrosion resistance in moisture, humidity, and chemical-exposed areas. This combination reduces replacement frequency and maintenance needs, delivering lower total cost of ownership in factories, processing plants, and outdoor installations.
Yes. The 138 in length and 11.75 in width with a 3 in channel supports extended spans with fewer joints, enhancing safety on long runs. Its load-bearing profile suits elevated platforms and mezzanine applications where secure footing and durable traction are critical.
The product is OSHA compliant, aligning with workplace safety regulations for slip resistance and surface integrity. This helps with regulatory audits, ensures consistent safety performance, and supports compliant procurement for industrial facilities, warehouses, and maintenance operations.
Maintenance is minimized by the mill-galvanized finish and stainless-strength construction, reducing corrosion-related refurbishments. ROI comes from extended service life, fewer joint replacements, faster installation, and improved worker safety, translating into lower downtime and compliant operational costs over the product lifecycle.
