Conductive Top FRP Grating
Conductive top FRP grating drains off the build-up of unwanted, dangerous static electricity when grounded. It is a type of molded FRP grating. The specialized grating produces an electrical resistance of less than 26 kilo-ohms per foot, while retaining other desirable characteristics of conventional FRP molded grating. This specialized grating features a molded-on black safety surface which provides its anti-static characteristics. This secondarily applied surface can be added to all depths of Fibergrate FRP grating.
Alternative Names
Anti-Static FRP Grating, ESD-Safe Fiberglass Grating, Electrically Conductive Composite Grating, Spark-Resistant Flooring
Material Features
⚡ Conductive Surface: Carbon fiber or metal-coated strands ensure surface resistivity of 10⁴–10⁶ Ω/sq, preventing static buildup.
⚡ Explosion-Proof: Ideal for flammable environments (e.g., fuel storage, chemical plants).
⚡ Corrosion Immunity: Resists H2S, hydrocarbons, and saltwater.
⚡ Lightweight & Durable: 1/5 steel’s weight with 5 tons/m² load capacity.
⚡ Customizable: Slip-resistant surfaces, UV-stable colors, and fire-retardant options (ASTM E84 Class A).
Key Specifications
