Diamond Tread Plate

Diamond Chequered Tread Plate ( Non-slippery Tread Plate) Materials, Technical
Requirements and Uses Examples
Checkered diamond pattern metal sheet is the most widely used and most common
anti-slippery tread plate and stair covering material. Diamond tread plate is
ideal for walkways. The raised part of the checkered metal plates makes the
walking very comfortable. It is equally applicable to many areas, such as
walkways, bracket plate, attic, stair treads and so on. It can be used in all
slight anti-slip flooring needs.
Materials for Anti-skipping tread plate: Iron, stainless steel, galvanized
steel, aluminum.
Choosing the Right Metal Plate Thickness for Stamping Slip-Resisting Checkered
Tread Plate:
Stamping chequer process: After two CNC punching, stamping, but not perforated
through. To form raised or embossed patterns and designs on one surface of the
metal plate, but on holes going through the stamped sheets.
Thus the stamped checkered tread plate needs metal sheet material with proper
thickness. If the plate is too thin, it will get punched through easily and
leave opening on the sheet. If the metal plate is too thick, it is hard to get
chequers on the surface.
The common metal sheet thickness for checkered tread plate: between 1.2-1.8mm.
Tread plates can be checkered plate, perforated metal or expanded metal sheets.
Diamond (checkered) plate is one kind of anti-slippery tread plates
characterized by beautiful appearance, good strength, light weight, metal
material saving and many other advantages. Diamond checkered tread plate has
wide range of applications in transportation, construction, decoration,
flooring for equipment, machinery, shipbuilding and other fields.
In general, the user of diamond tread plate has less requirements for
mechanical and engineering performance. The quality requirement for diamond
checkered tread plate concentrates on checkering rate, height and depth levels.
Currently on the market there are two plate thickness commonly used: 1260,1000
mm. Plate width ranges from 2.0-8mm.
