Aluminmum Bar Grating

Rectangular Bar AG Series

The most widely used aluminum pressure locked grating is the Rectangular Bar AG Series. The square cross bars are assembled through punched diamond shaped holes in rectangular bearing bars, and are permanently locked in place by swaging. Bearing bar sizes range from 1" x 1/8" through 2-1/2" x 3/16" in 1/4" increments. A serrated surface can be specified for areas requiring slip resistance due to the presence of moisture. All popular bearing bar spacings, as well as cross bar spacings of 4" or 2" are available.

I-Bar AGI Series

The I-Bar Series uses an extruded "I" shape as the main load bearing member. Square cross bars are assembled through punched diamond shaped holes in the web section of the I-Bar, and then permanently locked in place by swaging. Bearing bars range from 1" x 1/4" through 2-1/2" x 1/4" in 1/4" increments. Bearing bar spacings of 1-3/16" and 15/16" c.c. and cross bar spacings of 4" or 2" are available.

Where economy is a major consideration, the I-Bar AGI Series offers a popular and reasonably priced alternative to the Rectangular Bar Series of products. The I-Bar design takes advantage of the aluminum extrusion process by placing the metal where it is most effective - at the outermost fiber - while reducing the thickness of the neutral axis web. Extruded I-Bar sections have the same load carrying capacity with less weight per square foot than rectangular bars, thus resulting in a cost savings.

The striated top and bottom flanges provide a "built-in" skid resistance feature without the added cost of serrating.
