B-LINE 32510 12 BL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size opening or span does the B-Line Grip Strut three diamond plank cover?
Each plank of the Eaton B-Line Grip Strut three diamond plank runs 144 inches long and 7 inches wide, with a 2.5 inch channel depth. That 7 inch width is the walking surface per plank, so for a wider catwalk or platform you run multiple planks side by side. The 12 foot length lets you span support to support without splicing on most walkway runs.
2) Is Grip Strut plank OSHA compliant for elevated walkways?
Yes. The three diamond Grip Strut plank is listed as OSHA compliant and is intended for safe, sturdy footing where a non-slip surface is required, which is the usual requirement on mezzanine walkways, equipment platforms, and catwalks. The serrated diamond openings shed liquid and debris rather than holding it on the surface.
3) Does the plain finish Grip Strut plank need to be painted or galvanized for outdoor use?
The plain finish is bare steel with no protective coating, so it is meant for dry interior service or for jobs where you are field painting or coating it yourself. If the walkway is outdoors, in a washdown area, or in a corrosive process environment, specify a galvanized or coated version of the plank instead of plain.
4) What gauge steel is B-Line Grip Strut plank and how heavy is it to handle?
It is formed from 10 gauge steel, the heavier of the common Grip Strut gauges, and the plank carries a stated product weight of 10 lb. One person can set a 12 foot section by hand on most jobs, which is why this is a common choice for retrofit walkways where crane access is limited.
5) Should I use Grip Strut plank or bar grating for a maintenance platform?
Grip Strut plank is a one piece formed steel channel with a serrated diamond surface, so it installs as a ready to fasten walking section rather than a fabricated panel. With the 2.5 inch channel formed down each side it gets its stiffness from the profile itself and drops onto supports without a surround frame. Bar grating is the better answer when you need a large continuous deck area or heavy rolling loads; plank at 7 inches wide suits runs, ladder landings, and service walkways.
6) How tall does the Grip Strut plank sit above its supports?
Overall height is 2.5 inches, matching the formed channel depth. Allow for that when you set your finished walking height against a doorway threshold, ladder rung, or existing platform elevation, because the walking surface ends up 2.5 inches above the top of the supporting steel.
7) What is the part number for the 12 foot, 7 inch wide plain Grip Strut plank?
Order it as Eaton B-Line model 32510 12 BL. That number covers the 144 inch length, 7 inch width, 2.5 inch channel, 10 gauge plain steel three diamond plank.
