Fiberglass Walkways

Combining unmatched corrosion resistance with strength, long life and safety, Fibergrate® Composite Structures Inc.
sets the standard for fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) molded products. Fibergrate® products are lightweight and
easy to fabricate.

Feature Benefit

Fibreglass Construction Won't rust, resists corrosion, virtually maintenance free and doesn't need painting.

Non-Slip Surface Finish Either miniscus or grit surface provides excellent slip resistance in both directions,
thereby reducing slips and falls.

Optimum Glass Fibre Content Increases load carrying capabilities and corrosion resistance.

One Piece Moulded Construction - Strength in both directions

- No loosening with use
- Easier to fabricate and install
- No end banding required

Non-Conductive Provides electrical insulation and doesn't conduct heat.

1/3 The Weight Of Steel Allows installation of larger sections, easier to handle and remove for maintenance.

Tapered Bar Construction Facilitates cleaning- prevents build up of debris.

Available Colours Green and Grey.

Ease Of Fabrication Can be fabricated and installed using hand tools, does not require welding or banding.

Slip Resistant Surfaces

Slips and falls are the second leading cause of industrial accidents. That is why two slip resistant surfaces for a walkway
solution was developed. These surfaces include meniscus and integrally applied grit tops in the Fibergrate resins.

Available Surfaces for Moulded Grating

all Fibergrate moulded gratings.

Fastening Clamps & Assembly

Panels can be cut using traditional carpenter’s tools such as a saber saw or circular saw. For large jobs, we recommend using
diamond grit blades, or tungsten carbide grit-edged blades for better performance. In the event your project requires precision
cutting and your comfort level is not up to the task, our factories can custom cut your grating to your specific design requirements
thus insuring accuracy the first time while reducing unnecessary waste. This saves you both time and money.
Typically there are two main clamps used to tie into place and are made of Stainless Steel.

C-Clamp

C-Clamp

C-clamps are designed to tie two neighboured panels of molded fiberglass gratings
together. This helps to minimize differential deflections when their joints fall between
supports. The installation is from the top side of the fiberglass grating walkway.

M-Clamp

M-Clamp

M-clamps (also known as saddle clips) clamps 2 fiberglass grating load bars to the GRS
PV-Clamp. This provides excellent holding ability.

The rib of the sheeting determines the position

required for the M-Clamp. In order to align
correctly it is necessary to cut out an
appropriate cross member, and also notch out
the two adjacent cross members to clear the
bracket lips.

Access Systems

Protect your roof sheeting against damage by installing

Roof Grip Systems. Modern aluminium alloys ensure
this product will add years onto the useful life span of
your roof.

- Control access to the roof space

- Reduces damage to the roof sheeting
- Creates safe access when working at heights

Elements include:

- Light Weight
- Anti-Slip
- Corrosion resistant
- Durable

By distributing the imposed loads over a wide area the

product preserves the integrity of the installation.
No degrading of the roof takes place during installation.

AMPLIGRIP has a non-slip; it is light weight, durable and hard wearing. AMPLIGRIP can be designed into almost
any floor grating application at a very competitive life cycle cost.

Roof Grip Specifications

Code Width Length

RG 600 600mm 6m

A wide variety of fixing brackets are available as these vary with the roof sheet type. We recommend the following
number of brackets to be fitted to the specified width.

Code No. of Brackets

RG 600 varies per sheet profile

AMPLIGRIP Expanded Aluminium Grating

Is ideally suited to the manufacture of:

- Access walkways for outside and inside of buildings

- Façade cleaning walkways
- Pedestrian bridges
- Air ventilation covers
