Diamond plate is a metal plate product that has a raised diamond-like pattern on the surface. This pattern creates increased traction for a person or object on top of the diamond plate. A variety of metals can be used to make diamond plate, adding to its versatility. Diamond plate can also have different patterns and varying projection heights depending on the application.

There is really no difference between diamond plate, tread plate, and checker plate other than the name. For the most part, these names can be used interchangeably. All three names refer to the same shape of metal material.

A common diamond plate application is for traction. Shipping docks are often made from diamond plate. They are able to resist the wear and cyclic loading of forklifts and heavy pallets while at the same time offering slip-resistance and ductility. Walkways and platforms are another common application, as well as for steps and running boards.

While diamond plate does offer increased traction to smooth surfaced metals, other types of slip-resistant surfaces may require more traction, especially in wet conditions. If a surface will be subject to liquids, then metal bar grating or metal safety grating may be more advantageous than diamond plate.

Another reason diamond plate is selected is for aesthetic purposes. The pattern of diamond plate is generally considered appealing. Items such as store signs, displays or bars and counters will sometimes be made out of diamond plate. Toolboxes are also frequently made out of diamond plate for cosmetic appeal.

They say diamonds are a girl's bestfriend... but who wants hollow diamonds?

Not at all. In fact it's quite the opposite. Diamond plate wasoriginallycreated back in the 60s for tread purposes and therefore wasoriginallycalled 'tread plate'. However, the tread plate looked so good,peoplestarted using it for all kinds of other things. Take a look at a bigrig oran armed forces vehicle and you may notice diamond plate on itssteps orwalkways. This is to give the operators the best possible tractionwhen thesurfaces are wet or icy. The diamonds provide extra surface area forshoesto grab onto. You may be surprised when you walk across our diamondplateand find how much traction you feel, even with high heels.

Aluminum diamond plate is corrosion resistant. Because of its ability to withstand the elements, aluminum deck plate is often found in outdoor settings such parking lots, loading docks and stairs. It is also used on boats, docks or other marine applications. Because diamond aluminum plate is easy to wash and keep clean, it can be found in kitchens, restrooms and walk-in refrigerators or freezers. Aluminum floor plate can also be used for a decorative purpose and is available in a variety of patterns and finishes.

Carbon steel is used make diamond plate for several of reasons. Its strength makes it good for use in structural applications. Diamond plated steel is often less expensive than other materials such as aluminum and stainless steel. Diamond pattern steel, which is durable and easy to clean, can be found in many commercial and industrial applications including stairs, ramps, trailer floors, vehicle running boards and truck beds.

With stamping, room temperature metal is passed between a series of large rollers. One roller is smooth and the other roller features the diamond pattern. The pressure of the metal passing between the rollers allows the diamond pattern to be transferred to one side of the metal. Stamping is commonly used to make aluminum diamond plates.

With hot rolling, the metal is flash heated above its recrystallization temperature using an electronic thermal machine before being passed through the rollers. The molten metal than cools into the diamond plate shape. Heating the metal helps prevent flaws from occurring and is often used to make steel diamond plates.

Diamond plating is a common way to add traction and slip-protection to walking surfaces. Diamond plate can be made of aluminum, steel or plastic. It comes in a variety of patterns and finishes and has a wide range of applications. Now, the next time you see a surface with raised diamond or other patterns, you will know exactly what it is and that it is meant to help you get to your destination safely.

One of our personal favorite applications for aluminum diamond plate is using it as wainscoting in car showrooms.

Its diamond texture gives excellent anti-skid properties, and it is often used in industrial settings for stairways, catwalks, ramps, and walkways where wet conditions may otherwise pose a risk of sliding or falling. These non-slip properties also make it a common solution for ambulance floors and for the footplates of firetrucks, as well as domestic truck beds and trailer floors.

Diamond plate can also be used for wall panels, counter tops, tiling for other surfaces, and various architectural uses. Since it is easy to machine along with being robust and attractive, diamond plate tool boxes are another popular application. It is frequently employed to finish edges and corners of items made of other materials, where an extra element of wear-resistance is required. When fitting diamond plate in sheets or angles, care should be taken to select the right materials for fixing. Zinc-plated screws can be used, but aluminum rivets or other fixings may contribute to corrosion due to the differing electrolytic properties of the metals. If in doubt, seek advice and be sure to match materials appropriately to avoid long-term problems. 041b061a72
