What Is Safplate?

Designed for use in applications where open floor grating isn't suitable, Safplate is a durable, long lasting, solid surface. Its unequalled anti-skid work surface helps to reduce worker slips and falls, even when hazards such as grease, oil, water and chemicals are present. Since Safplate is electrically non-conductive, the possibility of workers being injured by electrical shock is virtually eliminated.


Materials of Construction

Safplate fiberglass gritted plate is composed of Extren pultruded fiberglass plate with an epoxy coated anti-skid grit surface. The standard grit surface is a silica gradation of 35 to 50 mesh. Safplate is produced in 4-ft. x 8-ft. panels of Extren Series 525 plate, fiberglass reinforced polyester with fire retardant. The standard color is gray. It is available in all standard Extren plate thicknesses: 1/8", 3/1 6", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4".
