Welded Steel Grating 32x3 With Round Cross Bar
Pressure-welded carbon steel panel on 32x3 bearing bar with a 6 mm round cross bar, hot-dip galvanized, a step up in section from the 30x2.5 panel.
Product Overview
A 32 mm bearing bar at 3 mm thick is the section to move to when the 30x2.5 panel is close to its limit: slightly deeper, meaningfully thicker, and therefore stiffer over the same span. The cross bar here is a 6 mm round bar rather than a flat, which keeps panel weight down and leaves a mesh that drains and sheds debris well. It is a common choice for external platforms and yard covers where the traffic is heavier than pedestrians but lighter than vehicles, and it is hot-dip galvanized after fabrication like everything else that leaves this plant.
Key Benefits
- Stiffer than the 30x2.5 panel over the same span without going to a heavy section
- Round cross bar keeps the panel lighter for the same bearing bar depth
- Open mesh sheds debris rather than collecting it
- Same galvanized finish as the rest of the platform package

What It Looks Like
Photographs of this product taken by the factory, lit and in production. Nothing here is a rendering of a product that does not exist yet.
Who It Is For
- Fabricators pricing a platform where deflection is the governing criterion
- Process plant contractors
- Contractors replacing panels that have visibly sagged
- Exporters supplying grating into industrial projects
Problems It Solves
- Visible deflection from a section chosen on price rather than on span
- Mesh that clogs with debris and stops draining
- Panel weight that makes handling a two-person job unnecessarily
- Mixed finishes across a platform because grating and handrail came from different suppliers
Application Scenarios
- External access platforms exposed to weather
- Yard trench covers crossed by pallet trucks
- Plant walkways where the 30x2.5 section is marginal
- Stair treads on external steelwork
Technical Features
- Bearing bar 32 x 3 mm carbon steel
- Cross bar 6 mm round, pressure welded
- Hot-dip galvanized after fabrication
- Automatic pressure welding line production
- Panels cut, banded and marked to a layout drawing

Use Guide
- Run bearing bars across the span, then check the deflection you will accept, not only the strength
- Band every panel edge that will be walked on or lifted
- Use hold-downs wherever wheels cross the panel
- Order a marked layout if the platform has more than a handful of openings
- Store panels flat and dry before installation so the coating does not stain
Quality Control
- Bearing bar pitch verified against the drawing before welding
- Panel squareness checked after cutting and banding
- Cross bar welds inspected along the panel
- Zinc coating inspected for finish and coverage
Materials
- Carbon steel bearing bar and cross bar
- Zinc coating applied by hot-dip galvanizing

Certification Standards
Production follows TBC, the source specification publishes no certification marks. Certificates are sent per product on request rather than posted publicly, because the documents a shipment needs depend on the destination market.
Customisation Options
- Panel division and marking to a platform layout
- Serrated bearing bar
- Banding, end plate and hold-down details
- Cut-outs for columns, pipes and handrail posts
How It Compares With The Alternatives
A technical comparison against other ways of solving the same problem. Nothing here is a performance claim against a named competitor product.
| Against a stock panel cut to fit on site | A stock panel trimmed on site loses its banding, its bar pitch at the edge and its coating at every cut. This one is drawn to the opening and coated after it is fabricated. |
| Against buying the panel and its frame separately | Panel, banding, hooks, frame and handrail are fabricated and coated in the same plant and the same batch, which is what makes them fit each other. |
