Heavy Duty products are designed to meet the customer need for grating subject to heavy rolling and static loads such as:
• Highways
• Plant Floors
• Loading Docks
• Inlet Covers
• Airports
It is also commonly subjected to shock and impact loads.
Heavy Duty Grating are manufactured in a wide variety of bar sizes and spacings.
ADVANTAGE of Heavy Duty - Serrated
Maximize the Skid Resistance. Enhance the anti-slip quality on the surface of the grating.
Provide greater pedestrian safety.

1. There are two ways of installation for grating. One way is by welding and the other is by fasteners. The method of installation by fasteners has a properties of easy to assemble and disassemble, thus preventing of destroying the zinc layer.
2. Installation fastener is suitable for all types of grating. It is made of up-fasteners, down-fasteners and inside turret cylinder bolt M10.
3. Welding method is an angle welding at the first bearing bar of every corner on the grating. A welding seam of which is not less than 20 mm length and less than 3 mm height.
4 . At least every one square meter requires four lots of installation fasteners on grating to fix. Install more fasteners on the supportable construction when the span is larger.
5. We can supply stainless installation fasteners to satisfy our customer.
6. Please indicate clearly the type, quantity and material when you purchase installation fasteners.

Plank Grating is a one-piece construction product that allows easy field handling and cutting. The construction is formed and punched sheet metal. The formed metal planks are available in galvanized and plain steel.
PLANK GRATING
Large Hole Surface
Plank choices include grating with surface openings that are mesh and different sizes of hole along with solid surfaces.
Most plank grating are lightweight and offer significantly higher slip resistance surfaces than bar grating styles.

ORDERING I N F O R M A T I O N In order for us to serve you better, you need to provide the type and area of grating needed, and also the dimension and quantity along with the necessary flat drawing when you need a large area of grating:
• Dimension of total area of grating. • Support structure (including section dimension, location of supporting beam and open direction of
channel steel). • Location and dimension needed to cut out and of moving steel grating. • Location and dimension of nosing, end plate and specified profile connection.
Indicate the type and quantity of installation fastener, at least four lots of fasteners needed for each panel in principle.
Indicate the type, pieces and dimension of stairtread, surface treatment and whether to change angle for side.
Area of grating is accounted by gross area, which is accounted by maximum outside dimension, including cut out and gap.
Only if all above items are clarified, you will get the exact offer.
