    Aluminum Scaffold Planks

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Scaffold Planks. Aluminum Scaffold Planks.
    Aluminum is a good choice for damp areas and outdoor use. Hooks with a 2" opening at each end secure planks to end frames. Rungs on the underside are for use as hand grips. Planks have a perforated surface for slip resistance and to reduce debris buildup. End hooks are offset to allow for continuous planking of large scaffolds.
    Note: Length is measured from center-to-center of end hooks.
    Note: Planks meet OSHA and Cal/OSHA dimensional and construction standards. Users are responsible for checking local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe set-up and operating practices.

    Shown Partially Extended

    Adjust the length of these planks to create a work platform on ladder jacks, trestle ladders, and other supports. The surface is ribbed to prevent slipping.
    Note: Planks that have OSHA or Cal/OSHA specifications listed meet dimensional and construction standards. Check local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe setup and operating practices.
    250 lb. Capacity—250 lb. capacity planks are for one person. A spring-set lock secures them at the length you choose.
    500 lb. Capacity—500 lb. capacity planks hold two people at a time. They hook onto your supports with rung locks, which keep the plank from slipping off or changing length while you work.

    The most commonly used and cost-effective planking for scaffolding walkways. Install three of these planks side-by-side to create a full platform atop standard 5 ft. wide scaffold frames. Hooks with a 2" opening at each end secure these planks to end frames. Their plywood walking surface can be replaced with standard 5/8" thick plywood when worn.
    Note: Length is measured from center-to-center of end hooks.
    Note: Planks meet OSHA dimensional standards. Users are responsible for checking local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe installation and operating practices.

    Metal Bar Grating

    Able to support heavier loads than plank grating, bar grating is good for trenches, mezzanines, walkways, work platforms, and floors. This grating has an open design that allows air, light, and debris to flow through. Cross bars hold the bearing bars in place; bearing bars help distribute weight and must rest on supports. Use Fasteners for Metal Bar Grating to secure.
    To Order: For made-to-order sizes, please specify width and length. Note: Grating less than 17" long is reinforced with banding.
    Smooth, Nonsparking

    Aluminum—Aluminum grating is more corrosion resistant than galvanized steel. Plus, it’s lightweight, nonsparking, and nonmagnetic. Note: 4-ft. wide aluminum grating is reinforced with banding.

    Safely climb inside your scaffold when surrounding space is tight. These planks have an access door that swings open to reach your work platform. They’re made of plywood—the most commonly used and cost-effective planking material for scaffolds. Hooks at each end secure these planks to end frames. Length is measured from center-to-center of the end hooks.
    Note: Planks meet OSHA and Cal/OSHA dimensional and construction standards. Check local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe set up and operating practices.
    Use an additional plank (sold separately) to create a platform that spans a standard 5 ft. wide scaffold. They do not include an access door.
