Description
The grating feet insert with 500mm spacing is a practical accessory designed to provide a stable, level bearing surface for open mesh grating installations. Engineered to support 38mm mesh panels, these insert feet help achieve a consistent elevation while ensuring the grating remains securely positioned over the substrate.
Ideal for industrial walkways, service platforms, plant rooms and access routes, this grating accessory is particularly useful where a controlled 6mm lift is required. By fitting neatly beneath the grating, the insert feet help to reduce rocking, spread loads more evenly and extend the service life of the flooring system.
Product Features
- Purpose-made grating feet insert for 38mm open mesh grating systems.
- 6mm elevation height to provide a controlled lift and improved bearing surface.
- Designed for 500mm spacing to correspond with standard grating support layouts.
- Durable construction suitable for demanding industrial and commercial environments.
- Supports consistent alignment of grating panels, reducing movement and unevenness.
- Compact profile that fits discreetly beneath the grating without obstructing drainage.
- Compatible with new installations or as a retrofit support solution on existing platforms.
Key Features and Benefits
- Improved stability: Helps minimise rocking and movement of 38mm mesh grating under foot traffic or light wheeled loads.
- Consistent elevation: The fixed 6mm insert height assists in achieving a level walking surface across the entire grating area.
- Enhanced structural support: Distributes loads more evenly onto the underlying structure, contributing to long-term performance.
- Quick, straightforward installation: Simple to position at 500mm centres, saving time during grating layout and fixing.
- Low-maintenance solution: Robust material choice and discreet profile require minimal upkeep once installed.
- Versatile usage: Suitable for a wide range of access walkways, platforms and service zones where mesh grating is installed.
