Grating Clips and Other FRP Accessories from Fibergrate
From grating clips to adjustable height pedestals, FRP accessories help tie a successful project together. In the world of construction and industrial applications, fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) grating is a versatile and durable alternative to steel, concrete, or wood across a range of applications. One of the key advantages of FRP grating is its ability to withstand harsh environments while offering strength and corrosion resistance. Our goal at Fibergrate is to provide all the products you need to deploy our grating solutions in your applications. Our accessory products are available for optimizing the installation and performance of FRP grating systems.
#1 FRP Grating Clips and Fasteners
FRP panels are sturdy and stable when you use the right clips and fasteners. Different styles of clips are available to suit various types of gratings and installation requirements. Fibergrate offers a range of specially designed clips and clip assemblies made of Type 316 Stainless Steel. You can refer to our clips reference guide to see which grating clips you need for your project.

#2 Sealing and Bonding Kits
Sealing and bonding kits help you maximize the lifespan and stability of FRP grating installations. Sealing the cut ends of FRP grating panels and other components helps prevent potentially corrosive chemicals from reaching and damaging the exposed glass fibers. Our proprietary epoxy clear coating, available in convenient spray cans, effectively seals these vulnerable areas. We find that taking this quick and easy step will safeguard the integrity of the grating system over time.

Need to attach FRP pieces together? Bonding clean, sanded surfaces using a clear bond kit supports seamless integration and structural stability. Our kits provide a reliable method for securely attaching two pieces of FRP grating, enhancing the overall durability and performance of the installation.
Note on cutting and installing fiberglass reinforced plastic: Dust from any FRP products can cause skin irritation. When sanding or cutting FRP grating, always wear protective clothing and a face mask. Read our fabrication guide for more tips. Use bonding and sealing products in well-ventilated areas.
#3 Grating Pedestals
Grating pedestals offer versatile support solutions for FRP grating installations, particularly in scenarios requiring raised, level flooring on sloped surfaces. Our grating pedestals provide sturdy support for molded and pultruded grating, allowing for elevated flooring that adapts to varying terrain. These pedestals are adjustable up to 60 inches in height, offering flexibility in installation and accommodating sloping floors with ease.

One notable advantage of grating pedestals is their corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity even in harsh environments. Additionally, their versatility allows for easy modification or relocation as project needs evolve, offering a much more cost-effective solution compared to traditional beam supports.
Looking for more options? We also recommend Bison Versadjust pedestals, expanding the range of height options available for tailored installations. With these pedestals, builders and engineers can create raised flooring solutions that meet specific project requirements while ensuring stability and durability.
#4 Grating Edge Ramps
Available in various depths to accommodate different grating types, grating ramps help create a seamless connection while enhancing safety and accessibility. With options for both molded and pultruded gratings, we offer edge ramps in standard lengths with customization options available to suit specific project needs.
Featuring a grit top surface, these edge ramps provide enhanced traction, reducing the risk of slips and falls. Their durability ensures long-term performance, even in high-traffic areas. For specific details and product information, please see our Grating Edge Ramps Brochure.
