GS Metals is the manufacturer of the original GRIP STRUT® Safety Grating. Others have attempted to imitate it, but in test after test no other safety grating makes the grade!

GRIP STRUT® exceeds Federal Specification RRG-1602-Latest Revision. Multi-directional tests were performed under five conditions - dry, greasy, muddy, soapy and icy - with results proving up to 180% more slip-resistance than other similar products. The serrated surface of GRIP STRUT ® provides for slip resistance in all directions, under all conditions! And with 4-1/2" side channels on GRIP STRUT® walkway platforms, OSHA requirement for toeboards on elevated structures is also satisfied.
The open design of GRIP STRUT® minimizes maintenance, permitting quick drainage of fluids, chips, grease and mud, and ice accumulation shears easily under normal foot pressure.
High strength-to-weight performance is achieved through depth of section and structural design. The one piece construction offers integral side channels that form a plank that can support loads with minimum traverse and longitudinal deflection.
Regular GRIP STRUT® is available in a multitude of options to accommodate your needs for ladder rungs, stair treads, platforms and elevated walkway systems:
- Widths from 1-5/8" to 24"
- Depths from 1-1/8" to 4-1/2"
- Lengths up to 24'
- 12 and 14 gauge steel (mill galvanized, black HRPO), .080" and .100" aluminum, and 16 gauge stainless steel are standard finishes
- Ladder rung, plank and walkway configurations.
Heavy Duty GRIP STRUT® is a one-of-a-kind plank grating sporting a hefty 24 foot clear span capability. Heavy Duty GRIP STRUT® Safety Grating products offer the advantages of Regular Grip Strut® with the capacity for greater loads and/or longer spans. Heavy Duty GRIP STRUT® walkways are ideal for process plants, refineries, grain elevators, conveyor walkways, bridge inspection walkways, and papermills. Heavy Duty GRIP STRUT® is more competitive than ever against bar grating - shorter lead times, less support structure and installation savings gained make it the most unique formed plank grating available. Like the original GRIP STRUT®, Heavy Duty GRIP STRUT® has an array of options to meet the most stringent requirements:
- Widths from 9-1/4" to 36"
- Depths from 2" to 5"
- Lengths up to 24'
- 9, 10, and 11 gauge steel (mill galvanized, black HRPO), and .150" aluminum
- Plank and walkway configurations
GRIP STRUT® Industrial Safety Grating accessories are available to satisfy nearly any requirement. Please consult the GS Metals catalog or contact us for more information.
