Plank Grating Products

Industrial environments demand flooring that promotes productivity and prevents accidents. Argus Steel is a leading distributor of plank grating products, offering access to the industry’s most trusted safety brands.

We stock a vast inventory of Grip Strut®, Perf-O Grip® and Traction Tread plank grating in galvanized steel, aluminum and stainless steel. Whether you need aggressive traction for an oil rig or a pedestrian-friendly surface for a mezzanine, we supply the metal safety grating your facility requires.

Grip Strut® Safety Grating

Known for its aggressive serrated diamond pattern, Grip Strut® provides maximum slip resistance in all directions. It is the industry standard for outdoor applications where mud, ice, snow and oil create hazardous conditions. The brand’s open diamond matrix allows fluids and debris to drain instantly, keeping the walking surface clear.

Grip Strut®  is best for rooftop walkways, work platforms, railcar running boards and icy environments. We also stock Grip Strut® ladder rungs for retrofitting vertical climbs with high-traction footholds.

Perf-O Grip® Safety Grating

Perf-O Grip® features large, debossed holes surrounded by smaller perforated buttons. This design offers a unique balance of slip resistance and walking comfort. The large holes provide drainage and air circulation, while the smoother surface is less abrasive on footwear.

Choose Perf-O Grip® plank grating for interior catwalks, mezzanines and areas where workers may be kneeling or walking for extended shifts.

Traction Tread™ Flooring

Traction Tread provides omnidirectional slip resistance by using a surface with hundreds of perforated buttons. Unlike open-diamond styles, Traction Tread™ is often available as floor plates or planks. It is a preferred choice for indoor applications and areas requiring American Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance, as its smaller hole pattern is heel-proof and wheelchair-friendly.

Plank grating from Traction Tread is ideal for pedestrian ramps, commercial entryways and flooring over solid surfaces.

Choosing the Right Safety Grating

Choosing the right safety grating depends on your environment, traffic volume and specific hazard type. Consider the following factors for your plank safety grating applications:

  • Maximum grip: Rely on Grip Strut® when dealing with heavy grease, oil or mud. Its serrated edges shear through debris to grip soles.
  • Pedestrian comfort: Select Perf-O Grip® for mezzanines or inspection areas where staff must kneel or stand for long periods.
  • Accessibility: Specify Traction Tread™ for public-facing ramps and entryways where ADA compliance and heel-proof safety are nonnegotiable.
