  • Widths available to suit conditions

Treads with Toe Flange
These self-supporting treads are designed with integrally cast toe flange full 1″ high. Designed for positive elimination of accumulating moisture. They also have integrally cast end lugs for bolting directly to steel stringers. They are furnished with integral truss risers according to the span. Hoses are 9/16″ for 1/2″ bolts. On aluminum treads, electrolytic action is virtually eliminated by zinc-chromate coating on ends.
