What is Safety Grating?
Metal Safety Grating provides rugged slip-resistant performance. This plank grating facilitates excellent drainage. It serves ideally as work platforms. Install it on catwalks and stairs. Use it for industrial ladders.
Product Overview
Manufacturers cold-stamp carbon steel into safety grating. They form aluminum or stainless steel too. The process creates one-piece modular planks. These sheets feature distinct walking surfaces.
- Lightweight material
- Economical
- Easy to fabricate
- Slip-resistant surfaces
- Extremely low maintenance
