Eaton Specification Sheet - 53012 16 GL
Grip Strut five-diamond plank provides rugged non-slip surface across walkways, mezzanines, and work platforms. This 192-inch long, 11.75-inch wide grate is manufactured from 12-gauge steel and finished in mill-galvanized coating for long-term corrosion resistance, with a 3-inch channel size that matches Eaton’s B-Line framing. Compatibility and installation are streamlined by the 3-inch channel size that aligns with Eaton’s B-Line framing. This combination reduces field fabrication and speeds up installation, helping avoid project delays and rework. OSHA-compliant design reinforces safety standards while the slip-resistant surface reduces incident risk during maintenance, material handling, and ingress/egress at overhead and ground-level walkways. The product’s weight, around 7 lb per plank, aids handling and reduces crane or fork-truck time during installation. Using 53012 16 GL within standard grids offers lifecycle cost savings: fewer replacements, predictable maintenance cycles, and compatibility with existing infrastructure. With a mill-galvanized finish, the grating resists corrosion and minimizes painting or coating maintenance, supporting a lower total cost of ownership.

FAQs
53012 16 GL is designed for use with 3-inch channel framing within Eaton’s B-Line safety grating systems. The 192" plank length minimizes field joints, simplifying alignment and reducing assembly time; ensure your frame is compatible with standard B-Line accessories and end caps for a complete, secure installation.
Key specs include a 192 in length, 11.75 in width, 12 gauge steel construction, mill-galvanized finish, 3 in channel size, and a weight of about 7 lb per plank. The product is OSHA compliant and designed for slip-resistant footing in industrial environments.
Yes, the mill-galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for many outdoor and semi-exposed applications. For highly corrosive or marine environments, verify project requirements and consider additional protective coatings or alternate finishes as recommended by Eaton.
The plank creates safe, non-slip footing across walkways, mezzanines, platforms, and service corridors in manufacturing, warehousing, and maintenance areas, especially where heavy foot traffic and spill risks exist.
Expect reduced slip incidents and longer service life due to steel construction and corrosion resistance, lowering maintenance frequency. The long 192" length minimizes joints, reducing labor costs during installation and future rework, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership.
