BENEFITS OF MOLDED FIBERGLASS GRATING:

In recent decades, carbon aerogels have been widely explored by using graphitic carbons and soft carbons, which show advantages in superelasticity. These elastic aerogels usually have delicate microstructures with good fatigue resistance but ultralow strength. Hard carbons show great advantages in mechanical strength and structural stability due to the sp3 C-induced turbostratic “house-of-cards” structure. However, the stiffness and fragility clearly get in the way of achieving superelasticity with hard carbons. Up to now, it is still a challenge to fabricate superelastic hard carbon-based aerogels.

On large flumes with large pipe stubs, the danger can be even greater.  Here if an operators falls into the flume they could very well be swept out of the flume and into the downstream pipe system...a potentially fatal event.

Our complete stair tread line includes panels in a one-piece molded configuration for new or replacement steps; covered stair treads to replace deteriorating concrete steps; or stair tread covers designed to add slip and corrosion resistance to existing metal, concrete, or wood steps. Stair treads are available in a one-piece molded configuration engineered to exceed OSHA and other model building code standards for safety, strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.

Fiberglass grating is non-conductive, so it is ideal for hazardous environments. That is why it is often used in dangerous electrical environments.
