Materials and Finishes

Material choices and finish selection for bar grating and related products.

Material Choices

Galvanized Steel

Hot-dip galvanizing provides a zinc coating for corrosion resistance. Common for outdoor, industrial, and general-purpose applications. Cost-effective and durable in most environments.

Stainless Steel

304 or 316 stainless for corrosive, chemical, marine, or food-grade environments. Higher cost but excellent longevity where corrosion is a concern.

Painted / Coated

Powder coating or paint over galvanized or bare steel for color matching, branding, or additional protection. Specify color and coating system in RFQ.

FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic)

Non-metallic, corrosion-resistant alternative for chemical plants, water treatment, and electrical isolation. Lightweight and non-conductive.

Finish Selection Guide

Choose based on environment, load, aesthetics, and budget.

  • Outdoor / general industrial: Galvanized steel
  • Corrosive / chemical / marine: Stainless steel or FRP
  • Color / branding: Painted or powder-coated
  • Electrical isolation / lightweight: FRP
  • Food / pharmaceutical: Stainless steel (typically 304 or 316)
