Load data
Recommended tensile loads Nrec [kN]
Nrec = 0.8 kN (180 lb)

Notes/Conditions:
Tensile loading is limited by plastic deformation of the saddle clip
X-GR-RU resists shear by friction and is
not suitable for explicit shear load designs

Application requirements
Thickness of base material
tII 4 mm (0.157)
Thickness of fastened material
Grating height: HG = 2540 mm (0.981.57)
Grating opening types
Cross bar spacing (b)

Bearing bar spacing (a)
