B-LINE 82514 10 BL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does Grip Strut plank meet OSHA requirements for walking surfaces?
The eight diamond Grip Strut plank is listed as OSHA compliant, and it is built for safe, sturdy footing where a non-slip surface is required. That is the reason it gets specified for catwalks, platforms, mezzanine walkways and equipment access around electrical and mechanical gear rather than plain sheet or bar grating.
2) Is the plain finish on this Grip Strut plank OK for outdoor or wet installs?
It is plain steel, meaning bare, uncoated material with no galvanizing or paint applied. For interior, dry service that is fine, but for exterior decks, wash-down areas or anything corrosive you want a galvanized or coated version of the same eight diamond plank instead, or you will be field-painting it before it goes in.
3) What gauge steel is the B-Line eight diamond Grip Strut plank made from?
14 gauge steel, cold formed into the diamond pierced pattern with a 2.5 inch channel leg on each side. The channel depth is what carries the load between supports, not the sheet thickness alone, so span the plank on your framing at the interval your structural drawing calls for rather than treating it like flat deck plate.
4) What is the difference between eight diamond plank and a narrower Grip Strut channel section?
Eight diamond refers to the number of diamond rows across the walking surface, which is what sets the 18.75 inch width here. Narrower two, three or four diamond channel sections are used as single stair treads or catwalk stringers where you only need a foot or so of tread; the eight diamond plank is the full walkway piece. Same 14 gauge steel and non-slip pierced surface either way, so you can mix widths on one platform.
5) Do Grip Strut planks come with clips or fasteners to attach them?
No mounting hardware ships with the plank itself. Ordering the model 82514 10 BL gets you the 120 inch eight diamond section only, so add hold-down clips, saddle washers or weld-on attachment to your order separately depending on whether you are bolting to steel framing or welding the plank down.
6) Can Grip Strut plank be cut to length in the field?
Yes. It is 14 gauge cold formed steel, so a 120 inch plank can be cut down with a chop saw or band saw to fit a shorter run. Because the finish is plain uncoated steel, a field cut needs no touch-up for galvanizing, though any cut edge should be deburred before anyone walks on it.
