Rectangular Bar AG Series
The most widely used aluminum pressure locked grating is
the Rectangular Bar AG Series. The square cross bars are assembled through
punched diamond shaped holes in rectangular bearing bars, and are permanently
locked in place by swaging. Bearing bar sizes range from 1" x 1/8" through
2-1/2" x 3/16" in 1/4" increments. A serrated surface can be specified
for areas requiring slip resistance due to the presence of moisture.
All popular bearing bar spacings, as well as cross bar spacings of 4"
or 2" are available.

I-Bar AGI Series
The I-Bar Series uses an extruded "I" shape as the main load bearing
member. Square cross bars are assembled through punched diamond shaped
holes in the web section of the I-Bar, and then permanently locked in
place by swaging. Bearing bars range from 1" x 1/4" through 2-1/2" x
1/4" in 1/4" increments. Bearing bar spacings of 1-3/16" and 15/16"
c.c. and cross bar spacings of 4" or 2" are available.

Where economy is a major consideration, the I-Bar AGI Series offers
a popular and reasonably priced alternative to the Rectangular Bar Series
of products. The I-Bar design takes advantage of the aluminum extrusion
process by placing the metal where it is most effective - at the outermost
fiber - while reducing the thickness of the neutral axis web. Extruded
I-Bar sections have the same load carrying capacity with less weight
per square foot than rectangular bars, thus resulting in a cost savings.
The striated top and bottom flanges provide a "built-in" skid resistance
feature without the added cost of serrating.
