5/16" Checkered Plate, Carved

CSN / Usiminas Quality and Traceability Certification. A 5/16" Checkered Steel Plate(8 mm) is ahot rolled carved floor platewith diamond-shaped anti-slip relief. Made of structural carbon steel, it is widely used on metal floors, ramps, platforms, and industrial areas that require high mechanical strength and non-slip safety.

Features of the 5/16" Washed Checkered Plate

A 5/16" Checkered PlateIt is made of carbon steel according to standardsASTM A36 e NBR 6650. The process ofhot rollingIt offers excellent ductility, structural uniformity, and a high-quality dimensional finish. Its "checkerboard" (or "crow's foot") pattern provides greater surface friction, preventing slipping and increasing grip on metal floors and pedestrian or vehicle walkways.
