JOB SPECIFIC

Heel Resistant Grates All Polycast grates with the high heel icon comply with ASME A112.6.3: Section 7.12 Heel Resistant Strainers and Grates: “A grate designed to resist entry of high-heeled shoes, in which the maximum grate hole size in least direction shall be 5/16 in. (8mm).” These grates are designed to help avoid injury or falls by preventing small stiletto-style heels from getting stuck. Bicycle Safe Grates All Polycast grates with the bicycle icon comply with Australian Standard AS 3996 – 2006 Clause 3.3.6, which defines the maximum slot dimensions for “Bicycle Tire Penetration Resistant” grates. These grates are designed to help avoid injury or falls by preventing bicycle tires from getting stuck. Elongated openings, like those of most grates, must be oriented so that the long dimension is perpendicular to the dominant travel direction. In locations where there is no dominant flow pattern, openings must be limited to ½” in both dimensions. Where an accessible route is available to bypass openings completely, they can be oriented in any direction.
