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. |
