Steel Grating Stair Treads
Stair Treads
Steel grating stair treads are priced and fabricated by tread size, fixing method, nosing, side plate hole layout, surface and finish. Drawings help confirm fit with new or existing stair stringers.

Product overview
Stair tread selection for fitted stair flights
Steel grating stair treads are fitted parts, so quotation should confirm more than the grating pattern. Tread width, length, nosing, fixing method, side plate holes and bearing direction all affect fit.
For new stairs, send the stair drawing or tread schedule. For replacement treads, include photos of the old tread, side plate holes and stringer spacing so the new pieces can match the existing stair.
Stair Treads specification path
| Type reference | T1/T2 plain tread or T3/T4 checker-plate nosing tread. |
|---|---|
| Tread size | Typical widths: 600, 700, 800, 900 or 1000 mm; length follows drawing. |
| Nosing and surface | Checker plate nosing, serrated edge, smooth or serrated bearing bars. |
| Side plates | Confirm plate thickness, hole diameter, center distance and stringer layout. |
| Finish | Hot-dip galvanized, painted or stainless for indoor/outdoor exposure. |
| Packing marks | Mark size, type and quantity by stair flight or installation area. |
Standards reference
Standards and finish references
- Stair access requirements may reference ISO 14122, OSHA walking-working surface rules, AS 1657 or local site standards.
- Steel grating construction can be reviewed with YB/T 4001.1, ANSI/NAAMM MBG 531 or BS 4592 when specified.
- Hot-dip galvanizing can follow ISO 1461 or ASTM A123/A123M when a zinc coating reference is required.
- T1/T2/T3/T4 names are useful quotation shorthand; final tread size, side plate holes and fixing method should follow approved stair drawings.
Specification examples
T1-T4 tread type reference
| T1 welded plain tread | Welded fixing, no checker plate nosing; weld position follows drawing. |
|---|---|
| T2 bolted plain tread | Side plates with bolt holes, no checker plate nosing. |
| T3 welded nosing tread | Welded fixing with checker plate nosing for front-edge contact. |
| T4 bolted nosing tread | Side plates, bolt holes and checker plate nosing. |
Use T1-T4 as RFQ shorthand. Final fixing, nosing, hole layout, load and finish should follow drawings.
Component reference
Stair tread parts to confirm before production
Carrier plates, also called side plates, are confirmed by drawing together with bolt holes, nosing type, bar grating direction and final finish.
- Confirm side plate hole size and center distance.
- Choose plain edge or checker plate nosing by project requirement.
- Match bar grating direction and tread width to the stair drawing.
Applications

Packed by stair number
Bundle labels, tread quantities and stair flight marks help organize installation after shipment.
RFQ checklist
Send the tread details that affect fit and price
For stair tread quotation, send the tread schedule or stair drawing with width, length, fixing method, nosing, side plate holes, surface, finish, quantity and destination. Replacement photos help when matching old stringers.
