Press-Welded Gratings

Der Schweißpressrost entsteht durch Verschweißen der Füllstäbe, in der Regel verdrillte quadratische Profile, in den Tragstäben. Er wird im Allgemeinen aus Steel S235JR gemäß der Norm EN 10025 hergestellt, um eine gleichbleibend hohe Qualität zu gewährleisten (gemäß der Norm RAL-GZ 638).
Der Rost kann gemäß der geltenden Norm EN ISO 1461 feuerverzinkt werden. Der Schweißpressrost kommt in zahlreichen Industriebereichen für Laufstege and Treppenstufen zum Einsatz.

Load tables
Press-welded grating is obtained by electrical welded transverse bars, which are usually square and twisted (but can be round and straight) into the bearing bars. The grating is produced with “flat” banding, and then optionally undergoes hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with the applicable EN ISO 1461 standards. For an optimised anti-slip surface, it is possible to produce serrated press-welded grating, with serration on the bearing bars only. It is typically manufactured from EN 10025 standard S235JR steel which ensures a consistent production quality. RAL-GZ 638 manufacturing tolerances applied.

Mesh
Spacing between bearing bars (BB) and transverse bars (TB). Mesh created in this way has two characteristics: mesh width and mesh centre spacing (pitch).
- Mesh width: the width of the opening that is between the BBs and TBs
- Mesh centre spacing (pitch): the distance between the centre of BBs and TBs (for example, the distance between the centre of one bearing bar and the centre of the nearest adjacent bearing bar

Mesh group | Type
Mesh is made up of two values (in mm), where the first dimension is the distance between adjacent bearing bars, and the second dimension being the distance between adjacent transverse bars (for example: 33.33 x 33.33; 33.33 x 11.11; 55.55 x 55.55; etc.).
For convenience’s sake, the term “mesh gauge” is more frequently used (for example: 30 x 30 - 30 x 10 - 50 x 50 - etc.)

Bearing bars (BB)
Straight rods bearing the weight and arranged in rows at right angles to the transverse bars and supports.

Transvers bars or cross bars (TB)
Arranged at right angles to the bearing bars, and bonded to the bearing bars by electrowelding. The transverse bars are manufactured as square, twisted bars.

BB and TB gauge
This is defined by two values (in mm), where the first corresponds to their height and the second to their thickness. Gauge examples: 30 / 2; 30 / 3; 40 / 3; etc...

Range
Gap between the supports on which the ends of the bearing bars rest.

Impermeability – Security bars
Security mesh uses the following mesh gauge: 30 x 19; 19 x 30; 19 x 19; etc. It is recommended for industrial environments (14122 standard) and allows nothing exceeding a 20 mm diameter ball to pass through it.

Support braket
Bracket welded to the ends of the grating rendering it suitable for certain uses (for example: shelving, guttering).
