Press locked grating T3A
T3A gratings are a type of press-locked grating (30x130 mesh, 40x3 bearer bar). Specifically designed for motorways and meets the GC77 specifications of the French Ministry of Equipment and Transport .
T3A gratings can be supplied fitted with spacing and connecting attachments on request.
Custom manufacture:
GEI can manufacture made-to-measure T3A gratings to meet your requirements (layout, size, etc.).
Our research department is available to handle your technical requirements and your intended layouts, and can advise you on issues up to and including the realisation of your orders.
Motorway gratings are also available as T3B gratings
Gratings for industrial floors and floorings are also available as press-locked gratings, safety grids and fiberglass gratings.

Assembly
GEI press-locked grating is characterized by transverse, cross bars inserted under high pressure into pre-existing notches in the bearing bars. This grating is produced in “flat” or “T”-shaped sections, welded into place and then optionally undergoes hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with the applicable EN ISO 1461 standards. For situations with an increased risk of slipping, anti-slip grating can be produced, where the upper surface of the bearing bars and/or the transverse bars can be given anti-slip serrations. GEI press-locked grating is typically manufactured from EN 10025 standard S235JR steel, which ensures a consistent production quality. RAL-GZ 638 manufacturing tolerances applied.

Press-locking
STEP 3:
Application of banding bars
Press-welded grating is obtained by electrical welded transverse bars, which are usually square and twisted (but can be round and straight) into the bearing bars. The grating is produced with “flat” banding, and then optionally undergoes hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with the applicable EN ISO 1461 standards. For an optimised anti-slip surface, it is possible to produce serrated press-welded grating, with serration on the bearing bars only. It is typically manufactured from EN 10025 standard S235JR steel which ensures a consistent production quality. RAL-GZ 638 manufacturing tolerances applied.
