B-Line Eaton series Grip Strut stair tread, 288" Grating length, 9.5" Grating width, Steel, 2" Channel size, Stainless steel type 304, Stair tread, 16

The Grip Strut stair tread, model T42016 24 SS, is supplied at a 288 inch grating length with a 9.5 inch grating width. That 288 inches is a full stick length, so a single piece covers multiple treads once cut to your stair width. The 9.5 inch dimension is the run depth of the tread itself.

OSHA compliant, and the serrated Grip Strut surface is intended for safe, sturdy footing where non-slip is required. That combination is what facility and plant maintenance buyers need for equipment platforms, catwalk stairs and access stairs.

Type 304 stainless is the reason to pick this one. The T42016 24 SS is steel in a stainless steel type 304 finish, which is the usual choice for food processing, washdown bays, water treatment and coastal or chemical exposure where painted or galvanized carbon steel treads rust out. For dry indoor plant stairs a galvanized carbon steel Grip Strut is the cheaper spec.

It is a 2 inch channel size, and product height is also listed at 2 inches, so the formed side channels give you a 2 inch deep leg at each edge to fasten through into the stair stringer or carrier angle. Fasteners and end plates are not part of the tread and are ordered separately.

Order it by Eaton B-Line part number T42016 24 SS. That designation carries the 2 inch channel, 16 gauge material and the type 304 stainless construction, so a distributor cross-referencing it is matching all three at once.
