    Perforated Step

    Good for use as ladder rungs, cut these steps to size with a metal-cutting saw and weld them in place. For a clean weld, match the step material to the surface you are welding to. These steps must be welded at each end with welds capable of supporting the rated capacity. For those 5 ft. and longer, the maximum cut length is 24". Shorter lengths support higher capacities.
    Note: Check local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe set up and operating practices.
    Galvanized Steel—Galvanized steel steps require preparation before welding—grind off the coating from the part of the step you intend to weld. After welding, apply a cold galvanizing spray to the welds to protect against rust.
    Serrated Step—Serrated steps give you maximum slip resistance and allow liquids and debris to pass through. Perforated steps are less slip-resistant than serrated steps but offer a more comfortable hand grip.

    Add a hand- or foothold for easier access to your vehicle or equipment. These handles have a textured surface that’s easy to grip and keeps you from slipping.
    Note: Check local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe set up and operating practices.
    Weld On—Weld-on step handles can be installed with the side guards facing up or down. Mount them up to keep your toe from slipping; mount them down to maximize the surface area on top of the handle. For a clean weld, choose a handle that’s the same material as your mounting surface.
