B-LINE 42512 10 AL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the Eaton B-Line Grip Strut four diamond plank, model 42512 10 AL?
It's a 10 foot plank: 120 inches long, 9.5 inches wide, with a 2.5 inch channel size (the depth of the formed side channels). Material is .080 inch thick aluminum, 14 gauge. Those three numbers are what decide the layout, the 9.5 inch width sets how many planks you need across a walkway and the 2.5 inch channel depth sets the height it adds above your support steel.
2) Is Grip Strut plank OSHA compliant for walkways and work platforms?
The B-Line Grip Strut four diamond plank is listed as OSHA compliant and is made for safe, sturdy footing where non-slip is required. The diamond openings are pierced and formed so the raised edges bite through grease, ice and mud, which is why it gets specified for catwalks, platforms and stair treads rather than plain sheet.
3) What is the exact part number for the 10 foot aluminum Grip Strut plank in 9.5 inch width?
Eaton B-Line part number 42512 10 AL. That designation breaks out as the four diamond plank profile in 9.5 inch width, 10 foot length, aluminum. If you're matching existing plank on a site, confirm the channel size is 2.5 inches, that's the dimension that changes between plank profiles and it has to match for a flush walking surface.
4) Does Grip Strut plank come with mounting hardware or clips?
The 42512 10 AL is supplied as the plank itself. Hold-down clips, saddle clips or self-drilling fasteners for attaching to your support steel are ordered separately, and which you need depends on whether you're landing on angle, channel or cable tray rail. Size the fastener to pass through the .080 inch aluminum channel leg without deforming it.
5) Can one person handle a 10 foot Grip Strut plank?
Yes. In aluminum it's light enough for single-man handling on a ladder or lift, which is the main reason crews pick aluminum plank over steel grating for elevated cable tray walkways and rooftop runs. Full length is 120 inches, so watch your swing radius in tight mechanical rooms more than the weight.
6) Can Grip Strut plank be cut to length in the field?
Yes, aluminum plank at .080 inch, 14 gauge cuts cleanly with a circular saw and a non-ferrous blade or a bandsaw. Order the 120 inch length and trim to your bay spacing. Deburr the cut end, the pierced diamond openings leave sharp edges where the saw crosses them.
