Fiberglass Grating

Strongwell introduced new grating – DURAGRID® 1” R-7300. This innovative fiberglass grating is specially designed to replace 1” steel grating in corrosive environments such as offshore drilling and production platforms, refineries and chemical plants. The grating is extremely strong and impact resistant. It can span 36” with a load of 100 psf and a deflection of less than 1/4”; is virtually maintenance- free and uses rectangular bars shapes which are better suited in applications exposed to wave uplifts or when all surfaces of the bars need to be kept clean. The rectangular bar has a similar appearance to steel bar grating which is a benefit any time a steel bar grating “look” is desirable like when a section of corroded steel bar grating is being replaced. The 1” grating is half the weight of 1” steel grating and, therefore, easily handled in installation, and costs less to ship. It is also easy-to-install, and remove, providing savings on labor and maintenance. DURAGRIDR, a non-skid surface on fiberglass grating, proves safe for workers.
