B-Line Eaton series Grip Strut five diamond plank, 120" Grating length, 11.75" Grating width, Steel, 2" Channel size, Plain, Grip Strut, 10 gauge

The Grip Strut five diamond plank runs 120 inches long and 11.75 inches wide, with a 2 inch channel size and 2 inch overall height. On a walkway or platform you lay planks side by side across your supports to make up the width you need, so figure how many 11.75 inch runs it takes to cover the span. The 2 inch channel depth is also what you need to allow for when checking clearance under the walking surface.

Yes. The Eaton B-Line Grip Strut five diamond plank is listed as OSHA compliant, and the serrated diamond surface is intended for safe, sturdy footing where non-slip is required. That is the reason it gets specified for catwalks, mezzanine walkways, stair treads and equipment platforms in industrial plants.

Plain is bare, uncoated steel with no galvanizing or paint. That is fine for dry interior use, but outdoors or in a washdown or corrosive area bare steel will rust, so you would want a galvanized or painted version of the plank instead. The material here is steel in 10 gauge.

Each 120 inch plank weighs 14.4 lb. Light enough for one person to carry and set up a ladder, and worth adding into your dead load figure if you are decking a large mezzanine with dozens of them.

The diamond count describes how many rows of the serrated diamond openings run across the width of the piece, so it tracks with width. Five diamond gives an 11.75 inch wide walking surface, which is the plank format used for walkways and platform decking. Narrower two or three diamond sections are the ones used for single stair treads and narrow catwalk runs. If you are decking an area, the wider five diamond plank means fewer pieces and fewer fasteners.

No fasteners are included. The 52010 10 BL is the plank only, so you order hold-down clips, saddle clamps or self drilling screws separately to suit your support steel. Plan attachment points at each end plus intermediate supports along the 120 inch length.

Yes, 10 gauge steel plank is routinely field cut with a metal cutoff saw or bandsaw to suit an opening. Note that cutting removes the factory finish at the cut, and since this plank ships plain (uncoated), the cut edge is bare steel like the rest of it. Deburr cut ends, they are sharp.
