£120.80 – £252.00STAINLESS STEEL CHECKER PLATE
Stainless steel checker plate, also known as treadplate, is used as a non-slip surface in all manner of environments. The combination of hard-wearing steel and a pattern designed to offer grip underfoot make this metal a strong choice for safe flooring.STAINLESS STEEL TREAD PLATE

Stainless steel treadplate can also be used in a multitude of situations where a hard-wearing, low-maintenance and long-lasting surface is required.

HOW IT’S MADE
Like many of our patterned steel products, stainless steel checker plate begins life as standard stainless steel sheet. It is manufactured in a foundry and rolled into sheet form using a hot rolling process. Unlike stainless steel sheet, one side of the hot roller has the checker pattern which is impressed onto the sheet. With the other side being smooth, this is how the sheet has a pattern on one side and is smooth on the other. That smooth side is essential for secure fixing using screws or adhesive. Stainless steel tread plate is a very flexible material that looks good and performs exceptionally well. We offer a free cutting service, meaning you can easily order precisely the amount of metal you need. Just order the next size up and provide exact dimensions on the order page. We will cut your checker plate up to five times for free.WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US

Mild steel checker plates can be used outside with appropriate protective measures.
