Safe-T-Span® Pultruded Fiberglass Grating
Product Overview
Pultruded fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) grating is durable, corrosion resistant, and low maintenance for challenging environments. Manufactured with approximately 70% fiberglass rovings and 30% resin, pultruded gratings safely support industrial and pedestrian loads on longer spans. Produced by drawing fiberglass rovings and mats though a resin bath and heated dies, bearing bars and cross bars are then mechanically and chemically locked with a recessed tie bar.
Pultruded grating features:
- “I” bar and “T” bar profiles
- Industrial and pedestrian rated options
- Fire retardant, meeting both ASTM E84 and ASTM D635
- Slip resistant quartz grit walking surface
