Description

The GRP Grating C Type Connector is a robust fixing component designed specifically for joining sections of GRP grating on platforms, walkways and access areas. Manufactured from durable glass reinforced plastic, it provides a secure and corrosion-resistant method of connecting adjacent panels to create a stable, continuous surface.

Available to suit 25 mm, 38 mm and 50 mm grating depths, this C type connector helps maintain correct spacing and alignment while preserving the non-corrosive, non-conductive advantages of GRP systems. It is ideal for industrial, marine, chemical and outdoor environments where steel fixings may corrode or require frequent maintenance.

Product Features

  • Purpose-designed C type connector for joining GRP grating panels on platforms and walkways.
  • Compatible with common grating depths: 25 mm, 38 mm and 50 mm options available.
  • Manufactured from corrosion-resistant glass reinforced plastic for long service life.
  • Non-conductive and non-magnetic, suitable for electrical and high-risk environments.
  • Lightweight yet strong construction for easy handling and dependable performance.
  • Helps maintain consistent panel spacing and alignment across larger grating areas.
  • Low maintenance alternative to metal connectors in harsh or exposed locations.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Improved platform stability: Securely connects adjacent GRP grating panels to reduce movement and enhance walking safety.
  • Long-term corrosion resistance: GRP construction resists rust and chemical attack, ideal for marine, coastal and industrial sites.
  • Safer in electrical environments: Non-conductive material helps minimise electrical hazards around live equipment.
  • Easy installation: Simple connector form designed for quick fitting with standard GRP grating fixing methods.
  • Reduced maintenance costs: Durable construction minimises the need for replacement and ongoing upkeep.
  • Versatile sizing: Available for 25 mm, 38 mm and 50 mm grating depths to suit a wide range of platform designs.

Frequently Asked Questions

These connectors are designed to join adjacent GRP grating panels by slotting over their edges. They are typically secured using appropriate GRP or stainless steel fixings, which are sold separately, to ensure a stable and continuous surface.
Our GRP Grating C Type Connectors are specifically designed to suit common grating depths of 25 mm, 38 mm, and 50 mm, ensuring a secure fit for various platform and walkway applications.
Absolutely, manufactured from corrosion-resistant GRP, these connectors are ideal for harsh outdoor environments, including marine and chemical settings, offering long service life without rust or degradation.
These connectors are primarily functional components and typically come in a standard, neutral colour such as grey, designed to blend discreetly with most GRP grating installations. Specific colour options are not a primary feature.
While the connectors themselves are components, their GRP construction is non-conductive and non-magnetic, which contributes to the overall safety compliance of the grating system in high-risk or electrical environments. They enhance stability, supporting general workplace safety guidelines.
