Product Description
Grip Strut Safety Grating, also called Grip-Span Grating, is a multifunctional, one-piece, plank-type grating panel. Grip Strut Safety Grating is made out of a single plate of carbon steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel or aluminum alloy, which forms both the non-slip diamond shaped openings, serrated surface, and the load-supporting continuous channel at either side.
In terms of Grip Strut Safety Grating, maximum slip resistance in all directions is provided by a heavily serrated, diamond matrix walking surface that enhances workplace safety.
- Varied material types
- Greatly increased safety with a special non-slip serrated edge surface
- Maintenance-free open diamond design with the self-cleaning feature
- Heavy load-carrying capacity with minimal deflection
- Easy to install with low erection cost
- Versatile in applications
At Tec-Sieve, Grip Strut Safety Grating panels are fabricated out of carbon steel, galvanized carbon steel, stainless steel or aluminum alloy. However on a construction site, they can be securely assembled to form a work platform, walkway, catwalk, stair treads, ladder rungs, and many other nonslip structures.
1. Unique Performance Characteristics of Material Types
Our Grip Strut Safety Grating panels are available in material types as below, and briefly their unique performance characteristics are as follows:
(1) Carbon Steel
This material offers excellent strength and load-bearing capacity at an affordable price point. Prolonged exposure to moisture may cause corrosion and degradation, making it suitable for applications shielded from rain, snow, and high humidity.
(2) Galvanized Carbon Steel
This material is carbon steel that is coated with a protective zinc layer. So it exhibits the same performance characteristics as standard carbon steel but has enhanced resistance to corrosion and degradation. Galvanized carbon steel is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications where moisture may be present.
(3) Stainless Steel
This material provides elevated strength and resistance to corrosion, and the most widely used are stainless steel 304 and 316. Stainless steel is perfect for indoor and outdoor applications where exposure to moisture and harsh chemicals is common.
(4) Aluminum Alloy
This material offers a high strength-to-weight ratio and capable of withstanding moisture and chemicals, and the most widely used is alloy 5052 H32. Aluminum alloy is perfect for indoor applications where mass and corrosion may be a concern.

In terms of Grip Strut Safety Grating panels, does Tec-Sieve have any primary competitive edges?
If yes, please list them one by one!
Certainly, Tec-Sieve has its own primary competitive edges in the perforated sheet metal industry.
Specifically speaking, in terms of making Grip Strut Safety Grating panels to exact specifications of the customer, we have gained four primary competitive edges as below:
- Our factory is well equipped for producing diamond holes, whether serrated or non-serrated, including a large number of state-of-the-art CNC punch presses, turret punch presses and gantry-type perforating presses. In particular, gantry-type perforating presses are full-width perforating presses, which are specifically designed to quickly and accurately produce the largest number of holes per hit, thus making them the most efficient and the most economical in producing Grip Strut Safety Grating panels.
- Our factory boasts a well experienced and professional tool-making team, and they are able to design and develop a high quality set of precision perforating tools to exacting tolerances and specifications you requested at a very competitive price by using sate-of-the-art tool making techniques. Therefore any reasonably and specially sized diamond openings are available from Tec-Sieve.
- In addition to holes producing machines, our factory is also equipped with many other fabricating machines, such as sheet-metal shearing machines, leveling machines, bending machines, laser cutting machines, EDM drilling machines, grinding machines and welding machines. Therefore our factory is well empowered to carry out subsequent fabrication processing of Grip Strut Safety Grating panels, including cutting to size, leveling, notching, bending, forming, and welding, etc.
- A wide range of surface treatments for Grip Strut Safety Grating panels are available from our factory, and these surface finishing processes include degreasing, sand-blasting, polishing, cold galvanization for carbon steel, hot-dip galvanization for carbon steel, paint spraying, PVC powder coating, fluidized bed coating, PVDF paint coating, PVD titanizing for stainless steel, and anodizing for aluminum, etc. in any feasible RAL color to suit specific design and functional requirements.
