Since the introduction of fiberglass grating production in China in the early 1990s, it has gradually gained recognition and acceptance through years of development, finding applications in a wide range of scenarios such as tree gratings for municipal greening, floor drain covers in car washes, gutter covers, photovoltaic maintenance channels, and more. Different usage scenarios require different specifications and models, as well as a variety of colors and surface types. Below is a summary of some commonly used specifications and sizes of fiberglass grating.
Square Meterage of Entire Fiberglass Gratings
The commonly used full-sheet sizes of fiberglass gratings are as follows:
1×4.04 meters, approximately 4.04 square meters, suitable for larger areas of installation.
1.22×2.44 meters, approximately 2.9758 square meters, suitable for medium-sized installation areas.
1.22×3.66 meters, approximately 4.4652 square meters, suitable for specific length installation scenarios.
Common Aperture Sizes of Fiberglass Gratings
The choice of aperture size is typically based on the usage environment and load-bearing requirements. Common aperture sizes include:
12×12mm, suitable for situations with low load-bearing requirements and a need for fine grids.
19×19mm, suitable for general load-bearing needs.
38×38mm, suitable for situations requiring larger ventilation and drainage spaces.
50×50mm, suitable for large equipment and vehicle traffic areas.
Common Thicknesses of Fiberglass Gratings
Thickness is a crucial factor affecting the load-bearing capacity of fiberglass gratings. Common thicknesses and their application scenarios are as follows:
25mm (about 62.5px) thickness, with moderate load-bearing capacity, suitable for light-duty applications such as municipal greening tree pool covers and pedestrian walkways.
30mm (about 75px) thickness, capable of bearing 1-2 tons of weight, suitable for medium-duty applications such as car wash facilities.
38mm (about 95px) thickness, suitable for heavy-duty vehicle and machinery operation platforms in car washes, wastewater treatment plants, and chemical plants.
50mm (about 125px) thickness, with strong load-bearing capacity, capable of bearing 3-5 tons of weight, commonly used in corrosive environments such as chemical plants.
64mm (about 162.5px) thickness and above, with increasingly stronger load-bearing capabilities, suitable for extreme heavy-duty and special requirement scenarios.
Common Colors of Fiberglass Gratings
To meet the aesthetic and identification needs of different scenarios, fiberglass gratings are available in a variety of colors, including green, yellow, gray, blue, red, black, and white. These colors not only enhance aesthetics but also aid in distinguishing between different functional areas or serving as warning indicators.
In practical applications, fiberglass gratings require cutting according to specific needs before installation. Proper cutting and installation methods can ensure the stability and load-bearing capacity of the grating while also extending its service life. Therefore, when using fiberglass gratings, it is recommended to follow the guidance and recommendations of professionals.
