B-Line Eaton series Grip Strut stair tread, 288" Grating length, 9.5" Grating width, Aluminum, 2" Channel size, Stair tread, .100" Thick

The Grip Strut aluminum stair tread measures 288 inches long by 9.5 inches wide, with a 2 inch channel height. At 24 feet of length it is a stock length meant to be cut to your riser width rather than a single pre-cut step, and the 9.5 inch width covers the tread depth of a typical industrial stair.

Yes. The B-Line Grip Strut stair tread is listed as OSHA compliant, and the pierced, serrated grip surface is what gives it the non-slip footing OSHA looks for on work platforms and stairways.

This one is aluminum, which is the version people specify where corrosion is the concern: outdoor catwalks, water and wastewater plants, food processing and chemical areas, plus anywhere crews have to carry sections up by hand. Steel Grip Strut carries more load for the same channel depth, so for heavy traffic or long unsupported spans the steel version is the better pick.

It is 12 gauge aluminum, .100 inch thick. That is the standard plank thickness for walkway and stair tread Grip Strut, and combined with the 2 inch channel depth it is what carries the span between stair stringers.

What ships is the plank itself, 288 inches of 9.5 inch wide aluminum Grip Strut. Nosing, end plates, and the bolts or clips that fasten the tread to your stringers are separate items, so budget those into the order if you are building out a full stair run.

Yes, weight is not the obstacle here. The aluminum plank is listed at 1.74 lb, so handling a 288 inch length is about managing its awkward length on a lift or stairwell, not its mass. Cut it to length on site with a metal-cutting blade before setting it on the stringers.

It will. The same 9.5 inch wide, 2 inch channel aluminum plank is used for catwalks, mezzanine walkways, and equipment platforms wherever sure footing is the requirement. Planks are run side by side and fastened to supports to make up the deck width you need.
