Stair treads, also known as stair tread panels or steel step treads, are the primary components forming the steps of a staircase on an industrial or commercial platform. They are typically installed using either a welded or bolted connection method to the supporting stringers (side beams).
- Welded Fixing: Treads are directly welded onto the stringers. This method does not require additional side plates, resulting in a cost-effective and highly durable solution. The primary consideration is that it forms a permanent structure, making it difficult to disassemble.
- Bolted Fixing: This type incorporates reinforced side plates. Holes are drilled into these plates, allowing for installation directly onto the stringers using bolts. The key advantage is that it creates a non-permanent, reusable structure that can be easily dismantled and relocated.
- We offer custom manufacturing services to meet your specific project requirements. Our treads can be fabricated from the appropriate type of grating in various sizes to perfectly fit your staircase design.
