B-LINE 53012F 12 BL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size opening does the B-Line Grip Strut five diamond plank cover?
The Grip Strut plank runs 144 inches long by 11.75 inches wide, with a 3 inch channel depth. Plan supports so the ends land on structural members; the 3 inch side channels are the load-carrying legs, so the plank spans between two supports rather than needing continuous backing.
2) Is this Grip Strut plank OSHA compliant for walkways and platforms?
Yes. The five diamond Grip Strut plank is listed as OSHA compliant and is made for non-slip footing on work surfaces, so it suits catwalks, mezzanine walkways, stair treads landings and equipment platforms where a slip-resistant walking surface is required.
3) What does "plain" finish mean on this Grip Strut plank, and can I use it outdoors?
Plain means bare steel with no galvanized or painted coating. That is fine for dry interior use, but bare steel will rust in wet, washdown or exterior service. For outdoor or damp locations, specify a galvanized version of the same 12 gauge steel plank instead.
4) Should I use five diamond Grip Strut plank or two diamond tread?
Five diamond plank at 11.75 inches wide is meant for walking surfaces, platforms and catwalks where you need width per piece. Narrow two diamond Grip Strut is the piece used for single stair treads and ladder rungs. If you are decking a run of platform, the wider plank means fewer pieces and fewer fasteners.
5) Does 12 gauge steel Grip Strut hold up to forklift or cart traffic?
12 gauge steel with 3 inch formed side channels is a pedestrian and maintenance-traffic product, sized for safe footing rather than wheeled industrial loads. For forklift or heavy cart traffic, use a heavier structural grating rated for that load and span, not a walking plank.
6) Are fasteners or clips included with the Grip Strut plank?
The plank ships as the grating section only, model 53012F 12 BL. Hold-down hardware, clips and any support framing are separate line items, so add those to the order before the crew is on the roof or in the pit.
