Fibreglass Grating

Pultruded Fibreglass Grating - Data Sheet

Product Description
Sui Generis pultruded fibreglass grating is manufactured as an
alternative to conventional wood or steel grating.


Characteristics
Fibreglass grating is manufactured using ‘I’ type or ‘T’ type pultruded
bearing bars and cross members. The construction allows for
excellent mechanical properties in the span direction. The surface can
be either smooth or gritted and various resin finishes can be supplied
to allow for many and varied uses, such as offshore where fire
resistance and low smoke are critical or in environments where highly
corrosive chemicals are present.


Advantages
Corrosion and Chemical Resistant
Fire Resistant
Virtually Maintenance Free
Superior Life expectancy compared to conventional grating
High Strength to Weight ratio
Suitable for areas where large spans are required


Tests
All resin types are fire retardent with an ASTM E84 Class 1, 25 or
less flame spread rating. Gritted grating has surpassed the minimum
requirements of the ‘low potential for slip’ rating specified by the UK
Slip Resistance Group Guide 2000. Please see table below.


Slip Risk Classification based on Pendulum Test Values.

Pendulum Value Slip Risk
0-24 High
25-35 Moderate
36-64 Low
65+ Extremely Low

Colour
Green and Light Grey are industry standards, however any RAL
colour can be manufactured.


Technical Data
Fibreglass grating is manufactured with high quality fibreglass
impregnated with Orthopthalic, Isophthalic, Vinylester or Phenolic
resin. An inseparable bond is created between the silicon oxide and
the glass reinforced plastic ensuring long term integrity of the slip
resistant surface.


Maintenance/Cleaning
Remove spills immediately from surface, washing with water.
Pressure wash on low setting periodically to remove dirt from
between grit. Check annually for damage to paint, grit and GRP
substrate and repair as required.
