Where steel grating works
The same panel serves as a walkway, a tread, a channel cover and a facade. What differs is the edging, the finish and the slip-resistance class — below is the selection for each application.
THE ANSWER IN ONE SENTENCE
Industrial walkways use 33 × 33 mm grating with a 30 × 2 mm bar for support spans up to 1000 mm, R13 anti-slip versions in wet areas, and 1.4404 stainless steel in the food and chemical industries.

Selection table by application
A starting point for a conversation with an advisor — the final selection is confirmed by calculation.
| Application | Bearing bar | Load |
|---|---|---|
| pedestrian walkway, 1000 mm span | 30 × 2 mm | 5.0 kN/m² |
| pedestrian walkway, 1500 mm span | 40 × 2 mm | 4.9 kN/m² |
| trolley traffic, 1200 mm span | 40 × 3 mm | 11.1 kN/m² |
| stairs and treads | 30 × 2 mm | 3.5 kN (point load) |
| channel covers | grate 11 × 77 | C250 / D400 |
