Pultruded FRP Grating

Pultruded Fiberglass Grating is the long-lasting solution for rugged applications.

Mfrp-grating-vs-steel-gratingost types of metal grating have considerable down-sides; they corrode, wear down quickly, cause maintenance headaches and downtimes, and are costly to install.

Fiberman sells high-strength pultruded FRP bar grating which can be designed and used like traditional metal grates, but with all the many benefits of fiberglass. FRP grating is especially useful for replacing steel grating or aluminum grating in corrosive environments or where other types of gratings require frequent replacements.

Pultruded grating panels are available in 1″, 1-1/2″, and 2″ deep thicknesses in a variety of different profiles. We also sell Heavy duty grating in panel sizes up to 2-1/2″ deep. While T-Bar profiles provide more surface area, I-Bar profiles allow more open space between the bearing bars. The bearing bars are separated by cross-rods spaced every 6 inches. Unlike molded grating, which is strong in both directions, pultruded grating only provides strength in the direction of the bearing bars. Take a look at our video on the differences between molded and pultruded grating:

Have a look at our Grating Selection Chart for an overview of the most common profiles.

Applications for Pultruded Fiberglass Grating

Pultruded Fiberglass Grating is excellent for use in heavy traffic areas, such as outdoor walkways on drilling platforms, in WWTP water treatment plants, in livestock facilities and anywhere you require secure and durable walking surfaces. Pultruded Fiberglass Grating comes with anti-slip surfaces as an important safety feature in walkways where moisture is present. Pultruded Fiberglass Grating has a large open area, and is not comfortable for bare feet. We recommend Pultruded Grating for any place that people will be walking in bare feet, such as waterparks or swimming pools.

Pultruded Fiberglass Grating and Radio Frequency Transparency

In today’s connected world, we depend on cellular telephone signals, Wi-Fi networks and over the air radio and television signals. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity are essential to on-site work environments. Steel structures significantly disrupt these signals. Pultruded Fiberglass Grating is an essential part of building structures that are “electronically transparent” and do not interfere with radio frequency transmissions.
