What Is Diamond Plate / Floor Plate Steel?
Diamond/floor plate steel sheet and plate is hot rolled carbon steel that has raised lugs in a diamond shaped pattern on surface. Since the introduction of floor plate to the steel market, countless mills have developed methods to roll coil with a variety of raised lug patterns.
Diamond plate steel was originally created to meet the demands for new, safer steel products. In lighter gauge applications, diamond plate sheet is also used because of its appearance. Diamond plate carbon steel’s texture provides an ideal solution for slip resistant surfaces in industrial settings and is used heavily in the fabrication of stairs, truck beds, trailer beds, walkways, catwalks, and ramps.
