Chequered Plates, also known as CHQ Plates or Chakkar Plates in India, are anti-skid sheets commonly used for flooring and staircases. In the USA, they are popularly called Diamond Plates or Tread Plates.
These plates are available in various metals like Aluminium, Stainless Steel, and Mild Steel. Among them, MS (Mild Steel) Chequered Plates are the most affordable and durable option.
MS Chequered Plates come in different patterns such as diamond, teardrop, dimple, crocodile mouth, raised fisheye, octagonal hole, and drum type. They are manufactured according to ASTM A36 and BS4360 43A standards, in thicknesses ranging from 3 mm to 20 mm.
