Fiberglass gritted plate

Fiberglass gritted plate is a tough, corrosion resistant floor plate. SAFPLATE’s unique combination of pultruded fiberglass plate and an anti-skid grit surface creates textured solid sheet flooring that is ideal for both wet and dry environments.

Used in a variety of applications such as trench covers to contain vapors and fumes or pedestrian bridge walkways for sure footing, SAFPLATE provides a long-lasting, low maintenance alternative to steel plate for severe, corrosive environments.

Applications:

  • Walkways
  •  Splash Walls
  •  Overpasses
  • Bridge Decks
  • Pool Decks
  • Trench Covers
  • Odor Control Covers

Materials of Construction

SAFPLATE is available as solid plate or bonded to DURAGRID grating. Surface grits are available in urethane fine or medium (for light pedestrian applications), as well as epoxy fine, medium, coarse (#4) or extra coarse (#3). SAFPLATE can also be customized to meet the requirements of a variety of applications.

Standard SAFPLATE has a Class 1 flame rating of 25 or less per ASTM E-84 and meets the self-extinguishing requirements of ASTM D-635.

SAFPLATE is available in 4′ x 8′ panels in standard EXTREN plate thicknesses of 1/8″, 3/16″, 1/4″, 3/8″, 1/2″, 5/8″, 3/4″, and, 1″. SAFPLATE® is available in all standard EXTREN Series. Custom colors and sizes are available upon request.
