1. Introduction to Galvanized Steel Grating

Galvanized steel grating is a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material commonly used in industrial, commercial, and architectural applications. It is made by welding, pressing, or riveting steel bars together, followed by a hot-dip galvanizing process to protect against rust and environmental damage.

2. Specifications of Galvanized Steel Grating

2.1 Types of Galvanized Steel Grating

Galvanized steel grating is classified based on manufacturing processes and load-bearing capacity:

1. Welded Steel Grating

Welded steel grating is the most common type, manufactured by welding bearing bars and crossbars together at high temperatures. It is strong, durable, and cost-effective.

2. Press-Locked Steel Grating

Press-locked grating is produced by mechanically pressing crossbars into bearing bars under high pressure. It provides a clean, smooth surface and is often used in architectural applications.

3. Swage-Locked Steel Grating

Swage-locked grating is made by interlocking crossbars and bearing bars through a swaging process, which enhances strength and rigidity. It is widely used in flooring and industrial platforms.

4. Riveted Steel Grating

Riveted grating features riveted connections between the crossbars and bearing bars, offering superior load-bearing capacity. It is suitable for heavy-duty applications.
