B-LINE T22012 24 AL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size stair tread is the B-Line Grip Strut T22012 24 AL, and will it span my stair width?
The Grip Strut tread measures 288 inches long by 4.75 inches wide, with a 2 inch channel height. At 24 feet of length it is supplied as a long stock piece rather than a cut-to-stair single step, so you cut it down to your riser width on site. The 4.75 inch walking width is the tread depth you get per step.
2) Is this Grip Strut stair tread OSHA compliant for plant walkways and equipment stairs?
Yes. The B-Line Grip Strut tread is listed as OSHA compliant, and the punched, serrated surface is intended for safe, sturdy footing where non-slip is required. That is the reason it gets specified on mechanical platforms, catwalks and equipment access stairs.
3) Will aluminum Grip Strut hold up outdoors or in a washdown area?
This tread is aluminum, so it will not rust the way carbon steel does, which is why the aluminum version gets used outdoors, on rooftop mechanical access and in wet or washdown areas. It is formed from 14 gauge material. If you need a painted or galvanized steel tread instead, that is a different material option, not this part.
4) What is the 2 inch channel size on this Grip Strut tread, and what does it do for the install?
The 2 inch figure is the channel depth, matching the 2 inch product height. Those turned-down side channels are what give the tread its stiffness across the span and what you drill and bolt through into the stair stringers or platform supports. Plan your stringer spacing and fastener layout around that 2 inch leg.
5) How heavy is B-Line Grip Strut aluminum tread to handle on site?
Light. The listed product weight is .92 lb, so a single installer can carry and position lengths without a lift. That weight advantage is the usual reason crews pick aluminum over steel grating on elevated platform and retrofit work.
6) Can Grip Strut tread be used for walkway or platform decking, not just stairs?
It is sold as a stair tread, and the 4.75 inch width is a single-step walking surface. For a full walkway or platform deck you run multiple lengths side by side on supports, since one piece only gives you 4.75 inches of coverage across. The 288 inch length makes long runs practical with few joints.
