Product Overview
The pattern on checkered plate is formed in the same rolling pass as the base plate, so there is nothing welded or glued on that can come off. Pattern height runs 0.5-1.5 mm and friction is roughly 40% higher than plain plate. Lentil pattern gives grip in every walking direction, while diamond pattern drains better and suits outdoor use. The base is Q235B low carbon steel, so it welds and bends normally, and it can be galvanized on request.
