B-LINE 42514 12 GL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is this Grip Strut plank OSHA compliant for walking and working surfaces?
Yes. The B-Line Grip Strut four diamond plank is listed as OSHA compliant, and the diamond-punched surface is made to give safe, sturdy footing where a non-slip walking surface is required. That is the application it is built for: catwalks, platforms, stair treads and access walkways around equipment.
2) Will a mill-galvanized Grip Strut plank hold up outdoors?
The finish here is mill-galvanized, which is zinc applied to the steel coil before the plank is formed. That covers the flat faces but leaves the cut ends and punched edges bare. It is fine for covered, indoor or light-exposure industrial areas. For constant weather, washdown or corrosive process areas you want a hot-dip galvanized or stainless plank instead.
3) Does the Grip Strut plank come with mounting hardware or clips?
No. The 42514 12 GL is the plank only, 144 inches of 14 gauge steel channel. Hold-down clips, saddle clips, bolts and any support steel are separate line items, so add them to the order when you spec the run.
4) Is a four diamond plank the same as bar grating for a catwalk?
Not the same thing. This B-Line four diamond plank is a one-piece formed steel channel with a punched, raised diamond surface that sheds debris and grips underfoot, and it drops onto supports as a 9.5 inch wide walking section. Bar grating is a welded assembly of bearing bars and is usually specified for heavier point loads and larger open areas. Choose the plank where you want a light, fast-to-install non-slip walking surface around equipment.
5) Can Grip Strut plank be cut to length in the field?
Yes, the steel plank can be cut down from its 144 inch length on site with a saw or torch. Keep in mind the finish is mill-galvanized, so any cut end exposes bare steel. Hit those cuts with a cold galvanizing compound if the walkway sees any moisture.
