Steel grating is a type of construction material composed of steel bars. It typically consists of parallel load - bearing bars (usually flat bars) and cross - bars (such as round bars or twisted square bars) that are joined together, usually by welding or mechanical fastening methods.
ASTM A36 or 235JR Hot dip galvanized metal floor grilles are typically made from high - quality carbon steel or stainless steel.
Carbon steel offers good strength and toughness at a relatively low cost, while stainless steel provides enhanced corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, making it suitable for environments with high corrosion requirements.
During the manufacturing process, a series of international and domestic standards need to be followed, such as ASTM A123/A123M, AS 1650, BS 729, GB 2518, etc., to ensure the quality and performance of the product.

- Load bearing bars: 30 mm ×3 mm.
- Cross bars: 15 mm × 3 mm.
- Coating: 85 micron hot deep galvanized.
- With fixing clamps all types.
Steel grating comes in various forms, with hot dip galvanized metal floor grate being one of the common types as described in the previous text. The load - bearing bars are arranged horizontally to bear the weight placed on the grating, while the cross - bars are placed at intervals perpendicular to the load - bearing bars to provide additional support and stability, forming a grid - like structure.
This structure gives steel grating several advantages. It has high strength, enabling it to bear significant loads, whether in industrial settings for factory floors and work platforms or in transportation for bridge decking.
It also offers good drainage and ventilation properties due to the open grid design, which is useful for applications like drainage covers in urban areas.
Additionally, different surface treatments like hot dip galvanizing can be applied to enhance its corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in harsh environments such as chemical plants or coastal areas.
Application areas of Steel Grating
Industrial field: widely used in floors, working platforms, stair treads, safety railings and other parts of factories, warehouses, mines and other places. It can withstand heavy loads and harsh working environments to ensure production safety and efficiency.
Municipal Engineering: Commonly used in rainwater manhole covers, drainage ditch covers, tree pond grates, etc. in urban drainage systems. Its corrosion resistance and drainage performance help maintain the normal operation of urban infrastructure.
Transportation field: In bridges, tunnels, subway stations, highways, railways and other transportation facilities, it can be used in road paving, drainage systems, overpasses and corridors as ground materials, etc., to improve the safety of pedestrians and vehicles, while facilitating drainage and reducing the impact of water accumulation on traffic.
Construction field: It can be used as decorative materials for stairs, balconies, and facades in modern buildings. It can also be used for partitions, ceilings, and floor slabs in interior decoration to add beauty and functionality to the building.
Petrochemical and power plants: Due to its high strength and corrosion resistance, it has been widely used in platforms, walkways, trestles and other parts of petrochemical companies and power plants to meet the high requirements for equipment and facilities in these industries.
