B-LINE 22012 12 AL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size walkway plank is the B-Line Grip Strut 22012 12 AL, and how wide a walking surface does one piece give?
It's a two diamond Grip Strut plank measuring 144 inches long by 4.75 inches wide, with a 2 inch channel depth. One piece gives you a 4.75 inch wide tread run twelve feet long, so most crossover and catwalk jobs use two or more planks side by side to make up the required walking width.
2) Is this Grip Strut plank OSHA compliant for walking and working surfaces?
Yes, the 22012 12 AL plank is listed as OSHA compliant. The serrated two diamond surface is the anti-slip element, intended for footing where a non-slip walking surface is required, such as platforms, stair treads, catwalks and equipment access.
3) Should I use aluminum or steel Grip Strut plank for an outdoor or corrosive area?
This one is aluminum, .080 inch thick material at 14 gauge. Aluminum is the choice where you want corrosion resistance without coating maintenance, and where crews are carrying planks up to elevated work, since it's far lighter than the equivalent steel plank. If the deck has to take heavy rolling loads, wheeled carts or vehicle traffic, a steel or galvanized Grip Strut section is the better pick.
4) How much clearance do I need under the walkway for the 2 inch channel Grip Strut?
The plank stands 2 inches high, matching its 2 inch channel size, so allow at least 2 inches of depth below the finished walking surface for the section itself, plus whatever your support steel and fasteners add. On stair tread and mezzanine work that 2 inch dimension is what sets your riser and finished-floor calculations.
5) What is the exact Eaton B-Line part number for the 12 foot aluminum two diamond Grip Strut plank?
Order it as Eaton B-Line 22012 12 AL. That covers the two diamond plank, 4.75 inch grating width, 144 inch length, 2 inch channel, aluminum, .080 inch material.
6) Can Grip Strut plank be cut to length in the field?
Twelve foot planks are commonly cut down on site to suit the span between supports. The material is .080 inch aluminum at 14 gauge, so it cuts with a standard abrasive or carbide blade. Cut ends should be deburred, and plan your cuts so each piece still lands on a support at both ends.
7) Is the B-Line Grip Strut plank light enough for one person to handle overhead?
Yes. It's aluminum, and even at twelve feet a plank is easy for one or two people to carry and set, which is the usual reason contractors specify aluminum over steel for elevated platform and cable tray access walkways.
