Order Galvanized Grating Online!
Grating is important in industrial, commercial and even residential settings where it is often used for outdoor or emergency access. Grating has been around for a long time and is generally a manufactured grid or metal lattice of parallel bearing bars held within a frame.
Do you have a construction project coming up that requires grating? If so, it’s time to consider galvanized grating. This affordable, corrosion-resistant grating is available in many forms. Bushwick Metals can customize it to fit your project’s needs.
Why Use Galvanized Grating?
You have seen galvanized grating on outdoor steps for drainage. You may have also seen it on the decks of boats. It is even present on sidewalks where flooding is possible. This type of grating often blends into the background while letting air, water, and light pass through otherwise solid surfaces.
Its non-slip design extends for industrial vertical movement, especially if water is present. That’s why galvanized grating is a prime choice for stair treads and ladder rungs. In industrial or damp areas it offers a gripping surface. On ships or at water treatment plants, these gripping treads prevent accidents. For construction projects where looks don’t matter, galvanized steel serves well. It is a good option for corrosion-resistant grating.
Advantages of Using Galvanized Grating
There are a number of advantages to pedestrian grating; it refracts direct light, yet lets light through. It does not form a solid floor and so allows air, noise, and water to pass between floors if required. This is great for an industrial setting, but its non-slip design also adds security and safety to users in wet or slippery environments. It’s often found in snowy or wet places. The robust nature of pedestrian grating means that it’s perfect for emergency exits.
One of the biggest advantages of galvanized gratings is the price. When compared to stainless steel options, it is economical. In fact, galvanized steel costs almost ten times less than stainless steel. If you have a project in need of grating, opt for galvanized grating. Shop affordable, corrosion-resistant, strong galvanized grating from Bushwick Metals. Save on the high costs of stainless steel. Get similar results from high-quality galvanized steel.
Given gratings use outdoors, galvanization is normal. Galvanized steel is much more resistant to corrosion than even our top-notch modern steels. Galvanization is where a protective layer of zinc is applied, coating the steel to prevent corrosion and rusting. While stainless steel offers this same protection, it is much more expensive. Generally, unless there is a very good reason (such as prolonged exposure to acid), galvanized grating is the way to go.
