Surfaces!
Plank Grating is a one-piece construction product
that allows easy field handling and cutting. The
construction is formed and punched sheet metal or
GRIP STRUT®
aluminum extrusion. The formed metal planks are

available in galvanized, stainless, and plain steel or
aluminum. These versatile planks come in a variety
of heights and widths for almost every application.
Plank styles include a variety of channel configura-
tions, some with interlocking choices, and walkway
styles with integral toe plates. Plank choices include
GRATE-LOCK®
gratings with surface openings that are diamond,

rectangular, slotted, or round shaped. Most plank
gratings are lightweight and offer significantly higher
slip resistance surfaces than bar grating.

McNICHOLS® Quality Molded Fiberglass

FIBERGLASS GRATING
Molded Fiberglass Grating is the product of choice where
corrosion resistance or fire retardancy is paramount and high
impact resistance is important. The
Resin
one-piece molded construction
panel is composed of fiberglass
rovings combined with a choice of
resin systems. The grating panel
has a comfortable concave slip-
resistant walking surface and is
easily cut in the field. Load bearing
bars in both directions allow for use Glass Rovings
without continuous side support.
McNICHOLS Quality Pultruded Fiberglass

DURADEK® and DURAGRID® Thermoset resin Unidirectionally
Pultruded Fiberglass Bar aligned glass fibers
bonded with resin
Gratings are manufactured
with a high percentage of glass
within the laminate that provides
Veil
high strength and stiffness and
has a higher load capacity than Multidirectional

Molded Fiberglass Grating.
It is an ideal replacement for steel or aluminum gratings
because it is lighter, corrosion resistant and fire retardant.
The bearing bars for these grating panels are shaped in
either an I-Bar, T-Bar or Rectangular-Bar configuration.
