Stainless Steel Treadplates
Durable, Anti-Slip Surface Protection for Industrial and Commercial Applications
Stainless Steel Treadplates are a robust and long-lasting flooring solution, designed to provide superior slip resistance, edge protection, and impact resistance in a variety of demanding environments. Ideal for stairs, landings, walkways, ramps, and loading docks, they are manufactured from high-grade stainless steel with a textured checker or diamond plate pattern for enhanced grip and safety.
Used across industrial, commercial, marine, and transport sectors, stainless steel treadplates are trusted where strength, hygiene, and corrosion resistance are essential.
Features of Stainless Steel Treadplates
1. Premium Anti-Slip Surface
The embossed tread pattern improves underfoot traction in wet, oily, or high-traffic environments—minimising the risk of slips and falls.
2. 304 or 316 Stainless Steel Grades
Choose between 304-grade for general-purpose applications or 316-grade for marine, coastal, or chemically exposed areas, offering maximum corrosion protection.
3. Heavy-Duty Load Capacity
Designed to withstand foot and machinery traffic, making them ideal for use in warehouses, factories, or transport facilities.
4. Versatile Sizing & Finishes
Available in a wide range of thicknesses (1.5mm to 6mm+), widths, and lengths. Finishes include mill, brushed, or polished options to suit aesthetic or performance needs.
5. Hygienic and Low Maintenance
Stainless steel offers a non-porous surface that's easy to clean, making it ideal for food processing areas or public spaces where hygiene is essential.
6. Indoor and Outdoor Use
Highly resistant to moisture, temperature changes, chemicals, and saltwater, making them a reliable solution in both indoor and outdoor installations.
