Electroforged Gratings
Electroforged Gratings
Meet Engineering’ most popular product. Electroforged bar grating is a forge-welded process that permanently fuses bearing bars and cross rods using heat and pressure into a single unit construction. This results in enhanced strength per pound compared to mechanical assembly methods. The twisted cross rods provide a non-slip walking surface, while Serrated Gratings offers an improved grip surface for extremely slippery conditions. Almost all sizes in Standard Mesh Type are readily available in our warehouses. Its simplicity in design is surpassed by its versatility in usage. Electroforged Steel Bar Grating can be used in various applications, including mezzanines, platforms, catwalks, stairs, fences, benches, racking shelves, and ventilation covers. It is not limited to industrial applications, as it was originally designed for. Electroforged steel bar grating is available in bare steel, shop primed, or hot dip galvanized finishes.
Stair Treads
Stair Treads
Stair Treads are meticulously crafted with the utmost quality and craftsmanship, available in Plain Rectangular and Trapezoidal shapes. They are equipped with a Side Carrier Plate and feature Antiskid Nosing, ensuring safety and stability. These stair treads are primarily installed by bolting or welding onto Industrial and Commercial Stairs, as well as around vessels and on Tanks. Each stair tread is custom-fabricated to precisely match the specific size, width, and length requirements of each job. Furthermore, standard end plates can be custom-fabricated to accommodate unique bolt hole sizes or locations.
Clamps - Grating Accessory
Clamps - Grating Accessory
Grating Clamps are quick and easy fasteners that attach gratings to structures without drilling or welding. They are available with galvansing.
Circular Gratings
Circular Gratings
Circular Gratings are manufactured from prefabricated Electroforged Grating Panels. We meticulously prepare the layout based on the Equipment Platform drawing after constructing the Frame. Subsequently, we carefully cut the Panel to the precise size of the Grating Frame and perform the welding process. Circular Gratings are strictly manufactured in accordance with the Equipment Platform drawings under close supervision to ensure a smooth and error-free erection process. Additionally, we make Pipeline Cut outs, Platform Erection Bolt Cut outs, and Notching for Structural Sections. Every Grating is precisely marked with the Platform Number and Grating Number using a hard punching tool.
Manual Gratings
Manual Gratings
Manual Mig Welded Gratings are recommended for specialized, heavy, and thick gratings due to the limitations of electroforged gratings. Our skilled workforce fabricates these gratings at our facility according to client specifications, including cut-outs and notching. They can be manufactured up to a flat thickness of 12 mm. The primary types of gratings are lock fit and zig-zag/honeycomb.
Drain Gratings
Drain Gratings
Drain gratings are used to cover stormwater, rainwater drainage in plants, and open areas. They are designed to fit the dimensions of drainage channels, catch basins, point drains, trench pits covers, and manhole covers. Drain gratings can be provided with side angle support or be plain, depending on the client’s specifications. They are available in materials such as MS, SS, galvanized, or painted steel. Custom drain/trench gratings are designed for light-duty applications involving foot traffic or light vehicular traffic. For heavy-duty applications involving forklifts, cars, and trucks, heavy-duty steel gratings are recommended.
Stainless Steel Gratings
Stainless Steel Gratings
We manufacture and supply durable, impact-resistant stainless steel gratings that can withstand extreme conditions such as high temperatures and harsh chemicals. These gratings are easy to clean and maintain and do not rust. They are primarily used in the chemical, dairy, pharmaceutical, and food industries, depending on client requirements. Our stainless steel gratings are manufactured from reputable stainless steel plates, such as SS 304, 308, 316, and 316L. After shearing the plates to the correct sizes, we fabricate the gratings and then finish them using acid cleaning or polishing.
Platform Gratings
Platform Gratings
Platform steel gratings are durable, slip-resistant metal flooring systems made of parallel bars, commonly used in industrial, commercial, and infrastructure applications. They provide safe walkways, efficient drainage, and ventilation, and are ideal for heavy-duty environments like factories, oil rigs, bridges, and parking structures, offering strength and corrosion resistance.
Zig-Zig (Honey Comb) Gratings
Zig-Zig (Honey Comb) Gratings
Honeycomb/zig-zag gratings feature hexagonal or angled patterns for enhanced strength, aesthetics, and functionality. They offer excellent load capacity, ventilation, and slip resistance, making them ideal for architectural, industrial, and safety applications. Customizable in materials and sizes, they combine durability with modern design for versatile use in diverse projects.
