Covered grating is often used in loading and storage areas. Other applications include food processing facilities where covered grating walkways prohibit contamination to conveyor or work surfaces below; facilities where covered grating provides a walking surface and controls subsurface odors; walkways over tank tops and vats and solid flooring where narrow heels might present a tripping hazard with open mesh grating.

Chemdeck^® Covered Grating
Chemdeck^® is a long-lasting, molded one-piece fiberglass floor product that combines slip-resistant Chemplate^® floor plate with corrosion-resistant Chemgrate^® grating. The top plate is integrally-molded to the supporting bars for a strong, long lasting surface which provides approximately 50% higher stiffness values than open grating. Chemdeck comes in standard panel sizes with either a 1/8" or 1/4" deep plate applied to standard depths of grating. Chemdeck is available in all four Cheingratc resin systems — FS-25, FGI-AM, CP-84 and VE-25 — offering a variety of colors (dependant on resin selection) that complement most walking surfaces.

Fiberqrate^® Covered Gratinq
Covered molded grating manufactured with Fibergrate resin includes an 1/8" deep fiberglass gritted plate cover secondarily affixed to any Fibergrate molded grating panel. Covered grating offers a strong, level surface for fool or cart traffic and provides approximately 50% higher stiffness values than that of open mesh grating. Its standard grit-top cover assures secure footing.

Note:
Type WLP Hold Down Clips are recommended lo secure Chemdeck and Fibergrate covered grating panels to structural supports in order to eliminate potential damage to the covered grating. Fibergrate provides 8 WLP Hold Down clips per panel.
