Marine Frp Grating Panels in Waukegan - Deck Systems

Marine FRP grating panels are lightweight, corrosion-resistant decking systems designed for harsh marine environments. They provide excellent slip resistance, durability, and low maintenance compared to traditional materials. Ideal for walkways, platforms, and docks in ships, offshore structures, and waterfront applications.

Size: Standard widths range from 1' to 4' (0.3m to 1.2m), lengths up to 20' (6.1m). Custom sizes available.

Grade: Typically meets ASTM E84 Class 1 fire rating, with load capacities up to 1,500 lbs/ft² (7,320 kg/m²).

Viscosity: Resin viscosity during manufacturing ranges from 300-1,000 cP (centipoise) for proper fiber impregnation.

Buoyancy: Positive buoyancy with a density of 0.05-0.10 lbs/in³ (1.38-2.77 g/cm³), depending on design.

Material: Fiberglass-reinforced polyester (FRP) with isophthalic or vinyl ester resin for corrosion resistance.

Mesh Type: Molded or pultruded grating with square (1"x1", 2"x2") or rectangular (1"x2") openings.

Surface: Grit-coated or smooth finish, with options for anti-slip textures.

UV Resistance: UV-stabilized resins for prolonged outdoor/marine exposure.

Chemical Resistance: Resistant to saltwater, oils, and mild acids/alkalis.

Weight: Lighter than steel (approx. 30-40% of steel weight), typically 2-6 lbs/ft² (10-30 kg/m²).

Marine FRP Grating Panels and Deck Systems typically comply with maritime standards such as ASTM E84, IMO FTP Code, and SOLAS regulations for fire safety and performance.
