B-LINE 51514 12 GL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is Grip Strut plank OSHA compliant for walking surfaces?
Yes. The 51514 12 GL five diamond plank is listed as OSHA compliant and is made for safe, sturdy footing where a non-slip surface is required, which is what gets it onto industrial catwalks, stair treads and mechanical platforms.
2) Can Grip Strut mill-galvanized plank be used outdoors or in a wet area?
Mill-galvanized steel is the finish here, so the plank has zinc coverage on the coil surfaces but the sheared edges and punched openings are left bare after forming. That makes it fine for damp interiors, covered platforms and general industrial use, but in constant weather exposure, washdown or chemical areas you want a hot-dip galvanized or stainless version instead.
3) What is the difference between five diamond Grip Strut plank and a two or three diamond width?
The diamond count describes how many rows of the punched, serrated diamond pattern run across the width of the plank. Five diamond gives the 11.75 inch walking width on this model, so it works as a standalone walkway or platform panel. Narrower two, three and four diamond sections cover the same pattern in less width and are usually used for stair treads or a single line of footing along a run. Channel depth here is 1.5 inches.
4) What gauge steel is the B-Line 51514 12 GL plank and can it be cut to length in the field?
It is formed from 14 gauge steel. That gauge cuts cleanly with a portable bandsaw or abrasive saw, so trimming a 144 inch plank down to fit a platform bay is routine. Any cut you make exposes bare steel on the mill-galvanized material, so touch the cut ends with a zinc-rich cold galvanizing compound before install.
5) Does the Grip Strut plank come with mounting clips or fasteners?
No fasteners are included with the 51514 12 GL plank. It ships as the formed 144 inch five diamond section only, so order your hold-down clips, saddle clips or self-drilling screws separately to suit the supporting steel you are landing the 1.5 inch channel legs on.
6) What is the exact part number to order this Eaton B-Line Grip Strut plank?
Order Eaton B-Line series part number 51514 12 GL. The suffix describes it: five diamond plank, 14 gauge, 12 foot length, GL for mill-galvanized. Keep the full string when you quote it, since the same 51514 pattern is offered in other lengths and finishes.
