Installation Guide of guardrail slab grabber
- Ensure the slab decking and structure can support the system and installer before you install the guardrail system.
- Work surface surfaces must be free of debris, gravel, and loose or slippery concrete surfaces that could interfere with slab grabber bearings.
- Measure and space the location of each slab grabber, no more than 8 feet between each one, or more than 12 inches from any outside or inside corner.
- Rotated the top handle in a counter-clockwise motion to open the post clamp slightly larger than the desired slab decking thickness.
- Place the clamp over the slab edge and make sure the post is positioned perpendicular to the slab surface.
- Adjust the top handle to tighten in a clockwise motion until the grabber is secure on the concrete slab. If using a torque wrench, tighten no more than 30 lbs./ft.
- Place the 2” x 4”, 2” x 6” or cable through the top rail and mid rail space on the post, use nails to secure 2” x 4” or 2” x 6”.
- The 2” x 4” or 2” x 6” can be used as toe boards if needed. The process is the same as above.

surface treatment for you
Zinc Galvanizing
On steels, we offer both hot dip and cold galvanizing for zinc galvanizing.
Before galvanizing, metals have been soaked in a caustic bath.
Hot-Dip Galvanized – Steel immerses in a molten zinc bath to create durable and tough zinc alloy layers. It provides maximum corrosion protection for steel when used outdoors.
Cold-Dip Galvanized – Zinc spays to steels at all angles at a controlled rate for required thickness. It provides basic corrosion protection for indoor applications.
In addition, we provide customized services and can choose different treatment methods according to the needs of customers.
