Application Scenarios
Stair tread flat tubes are used for load-bearing and anti-slip support of stair treads, suitable for use in corrosive environments such as industrial platforms, chemical plants, marine and wastewater treatment applications. Their glass fiber reinforced composite structure remains stable under humid, salt spray and chemical media conditions. For specific applicable environments and installation methods, please contact us for detailed specifications and quotations.
Selection Guide
When selecting, determine the cross-section dimensions (A*B) and wall thickness (T1*T2) of the flat tube according to the stair tread span, load-bearing requirements and installation method. Different specifications correspond to different moments of inertia and load-bearing capacities; it is recommended to evaluate comprehensively based on tread width and support spacing. Please contact us for detailed specifications and quotations, and we will assist with selection according to your working conditions.
Product Advantages
This flat tube is pultruded using glass fiber reinforcement and resin, featuring light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, insulation and maintenance-free characteristics, suitable for replacing traditional metal tread tubes. Its surface can be processed with anti-slip treatment to improve stair safety. Please contact us for detailed specifications and quotations.
