Each
sheet is produced from low carbon steel plates up to 5/16"
thick. The junctions of the strand and bond form a ridged
surface for improved tractions. Grating is formed like a
truss so that every inter-connecting strand acts as a structural
member distributing the load stress in several directions
across the supporting frame.
The
angular position of the strand and the bond makes the expanded
metal grating stronger in deflection than steel plate material
in original form.
This
product is available only in the regular or standard type
and is not flattened.
Typical
applications include long length or catwalk grating - usually
in 10 ft. lengths by 2 or 3 ft. widths. It is also ideal
for flooring, platforms and stair treads, where principal
use is for light storage and foot traffic.
Expanded Metal Grating can be made from carbon steel,
stainless steel or aluminum in styles from 1/4" to
1 1/2".
