GATORGRATE™ - OPEN MOLDED GRATING GatorGrate molded fiberglass grating is a one-piece, reinforced poly- ester or vinylester (FRP) grating, available in standard panels and sizes. It is manufactured by interweaving continuous, thoroughly wetted, fiberglass strand with thermosetting resin systems. Standard panels are available in three resin systems, two top surface configurations, four panel sizes and five standard grid patterns. Typical applications include floor systems, walkways, work platforms, stairs, ramps, trench covers & catwalks. GatorGrate has been successfully used in many industries...

78679 Seasafe Mini Catalog LOAD & DEFLECTION DATA The Load and Deflection Data provided in these tables are intended guidelines only, to help you determine the proper grating size for your application. The use of different resin systems and top surface options can produce variations up to 15% in these values. Because the product will be used in environments and under operating conditions that are not within our control, we cannot guarantee the performance of the grating. FRP products have low modulus of elasticity but high tensile strength, therefore loads are generally limited to the allowable...

GATORPLATE & COVERED MOLDED GRATING GatorPlate™ floor plate is perfect for fixing slippery spots or in large slippery areas. The anti-slip surface helps reduce slips & falls even when hazardous liquids are present. Seasafe grating available with Gator Plate attached to the top for a smooth walking surface. Covered grating is used for odor control, elevated walkways to insure that nothing drops thru the walkway onto the surface below. Note: Covered molded grating has a varying degree of "out-of-flat." In most applications, this condition will require correction with hold down hardware. Hardware...

78679 Seasafe Mini Catalog GATORGRATE STAIR TREADS & STAIR TREAD COVERS Stair Tread Covers Cut your own stair treads from GatorGrate Stair Tread panels. Ease of cutting - the panel design incorporates cutting “slots” every six inches so treads can be cut inexpensively, quickly and accurately, resulting in banded treads on both ends. Economy - the 22 3/4” x 144” panel size offers numerous combinations to maximize the number of treads (less wastage = less cost). Fiberglass Stair Tread Covers are a costeffective way to improve stairway safety for your workers. Made with corrosion resistant resin...

GATORDECK™ - PULTRUDED GRATING Pultrusion is a continuous molding process in which glass roving, glass matting, and a synthetic surface veil are literally "pulled" sim-ultaneously through a flame-retardant polyester or vinylester resin hath. Desired geometric shapes are formed and solidified as they are pulled through a heated steel die. Seasafe's Gator-Deck® pultruded grating provides the ultimate combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and structural integrity as a result of the automated pultrusion process. Slip-Resistant Surface Two-Part Mechanical Locking Cross-Rod • Corrosion Resistant...
