B-LINE 23010 12 BL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the Eaton B-Line Grip Strut two diamond plank, model 23010 12 BL?
It's a 12 foot plank: 144 inches long, 4.75 inches wide, with a 3 inch channel height. Formed from 10 gauge steel and weighing 8.4 lb, so one person can carry and set a length without a lift. The narrow 4.75 inch width makes it a walkway or catwalk tread rather than a full floor panel, so plan on multiple runs side by side if you need to cover a wider opening.
2) Is Grip Strut plank OSHA compliant for a工 work platform walkway?
The Grip Strut two diamond plank is listed as OSHA compliant and is intended for safe, sturdy footing where non-slip surfaces are required. The two diamond pattern gives the serrated, self-cleaning tread surface used on mechanical platforms, catwalks and stair landings. Whether your finished platform meets OSHA depends on how it's supported, guarded and spanned, but the plank itself is the compliant walking surface.
3) Does the plain finish Grip Strut plank need painting or galvanizing for outdoor use?
Plain is bare steel with no protective coating, so it's meant for dry interior service: plant rooms, electrical vaults, indoor catwalks. Outdoors or in a washdown or corrosive area it will rust, and you'd want a galvanized or painted version of the same plank instead, or you'd have to coat this one after cutting. Keep that in mind, because cut ends on any coated steel plank need field touch-up anyway.
4) Is the 10 gauge Grip Strut plank heavy enough for pedestrian traffic, or should I use a thicker gauge?
10 gauge is the heavier of the common Grip Strut plank thicknesses and is the usual pick for regular foot traffic on maintenance platforms and catwalks rather than occasional access. Lighter gauges of the same profile are used where the span is short and traffic is light. Since the carrying capacity comes from the 3 inch formed channel plus 10 gauge steel, the span between your supports is what you need to size against.
5) Can Grip Strut plank be cut to length in the field?
Yes. The 144 inch length is cut down on site with a metal-cutting saw to fit between your supports, which is how most catwalk and platform runs get built. Because the plank is bare plain steel, expect the cut edge to be raw; deburr it so it isn't a hazard underfoot. Cutting also removes plank length, so figure your bearing at each end before you mark it.
