Quick Summary

53012 13 GL is a rugged grip strut plank engineered for safe, non-slip footing in industrial facilities. Workers often confront slick surfaces that slow production and increase injury risk; this product addresses that pain point with a proven traction pattern. OSHA compliance is a key driver for adoption in many facilities, ensuring alignment with standard safety practices. The steel, mill-galvanized construction delivers durability in demanding environments, while the 156 in length and 3 in channel work with common framing to simplify retrofits. For procurement teams, this means reliable performance, predictable maintenance, and a clear path to compliant safety improvements alongside cost-effective installation.

Feature → Grip Strut five diamond plank pattern provides superior slip resistance, reducing incident risk in wet or oily areas. This translates to measurable safety improvements and fewer downtime events due to footing-related injuries, especially on walkways and ramps in manufacturing and logistics. Application opportunities include stair landings, platform edges, and loading dock approaches, where consistent traction supports efficient work flow. Feature → Mill-galvanized steel finish extends service life in corrosive environments, delivering lower maintenance costs and longer replacement intervals, which is critical for facilities aiming to minimize total cost of ownership. Application → Outdoor or semi-exposed areas benefit from the galvanized coating, while 12 gauge steel offers robust support on standard 3" channel systems. Feature → 156 in length enables long, continuous runs with fewer joins, simplifying installation and reducing potential tripping hazards. Application → Retrofit projects and newer builds alike gain from a compatible 3" channel size, easing integration with existing grating or support frames. Feature → OSHA compliant designation supports regulatory adherence, providing a clear compliance pathway for safety programs. Application → Procurement and safety teams can justify investment through demonstrated risk reduction and straightforward maintenance planning. Feature → The plank’s weight of 7 lb strikes a balance between manageable handling and sturdy load-bearing performance. Application → On-site installation crews benefit from predictable handling characteristics and field-cutting feasibility when needed, without sacrificing structural integrity.

FAQs

When installing 53012 13 GL, ensure compatibility with a 3 inch channel system and plan for a 156 inch length to minimize field cutting. The plank is mill-galvanized steel, weighing about 7 pounds, which aids handling yet preserves structural integrity. Use standard fasteners appropriate for galvanized steel and verify end-to-end alignment to prevent trip hazards in walkways and platforms.
The five diamond grip strut pattern provides superior slip resistance, significantly improving footing on wet or oily surfaces. Coupled with a mill-galvanized finish for corrosion resistance, it maintains traction and durability in harsh environments such as loading docks, fabrication floors, and chemical processing areas.
Yes. The product is designed specifically for 3 inch channel frames, facilitating straightforward retrofits or new installations. Its 156 inch length supports continuous runs, reducing joints that could compromise traction or create trip points, while its 11.75 inch width aligns with common safety grating footprints in industrial settings.
The 53012 13 GL is OSHA compliant, aligning with standard U.S. safety requirements for safe walkways and platforms. While CE or IP ratings aren’t listed for this model, OSHA compliance ensures critical safety criteria are met for many industrial facilities and pedestrian traffic applications.
Durable steel with mill-galvanized finish reduces corrosion-related maintenance, extending service life in demanding environments. The slip-resistant surface maintains traction over time, decreasing slip-related downtime and maintenance calls. Overall, the product offers lower lifecycle costs and predictable performance for endurance-focused facilities.
