Compound Stainless Steel Grating integrates high-grade stainless steel (304/316) bearing bars (3–12 mm thick, 15–100 mm spacing) with an anti-slip checker plate or mesh overlay and welded cross bars. This composite design provides exceptional corrosion resistance in marine, chemical, and humid environments while supporting pedestrian, forklift, light truck, and heavy industrial loads. Custom panels (up to 3000×6000 mm) feature mechanical polishing, electropolishing, or passivation for hygiene, safety, and durability, with excellent traction and fall-through prevention.
Stainless steel-composite steel grating
