Omkar Gratings Pvt Ltd manufactures high-precision non-ferrous metal gratings custom fabricated from specialized non-iron alloys including structural aluminum, pure electrolytic copper, naval brass, and cupro-nickel. Developed primarily for harsh marine exposures, distillation towers, and explosion-sensitive industrial operations, our non-ferrous products deliver unmatched corrosion prevention, non-sparking safety, and thermal properties.
Unlike standard carbon or galvanized gratings, non-ferrous open mesh solutions provide specialized physical characteristics required inside critical process equipment—serving as internal catalyst bed supports, vapor-liquid contact grids, filtration column floors, and demister retainers where chemical compatibility is paramount.
Every industrial project requires strict compliance with metallurgy and environment. Review our primary non-ferrous manufacturing materials:
Fabricated using structural marine-grade aluminum alloys 6061-T6 and 6063-T6. Highly resistant to atmospheric corrosion, sulfur gases, and moisture while offering a lightweight profile that significantly decreases structural shipping and installation costs.
Produced from electrolytic grade copper and high-strength commercial or naval brass. Known for absolute non-sparking properties in explosive gas zones, exceptional electrical/thermal conductivity, and architectural anti-microbial longevity.
Engineered from 90/10 (C70600) and 70/30 (C71500) copper-nickel alloys. Delivers superior resistance to high-velocity seawater erosion, pitting corrosion, and marine microbial fouling in submerged or splashing offshore conditions.

| Cupro-Nickel 70/30 | 8.95 | ≥ 420 | ≥ 140 | Highest Velocity Seawater Shield | Non-Sparking | Subsea equipment, extreme saline chemical processors |
Tailored manufacturing accommodates complex circular configurations, vessel radii, and internal equipment penetrations.
Internal support plates for random packing, structured packing, and fractionation column trays requiring complete chemical inertness.
Cupro-nickel grating panels that prevent barnacle, algae, and molluscan adherence in cooling water ducts and intake canals.
Non-sparking copper and brass trench grates and platforms certified for petrochemical storage, hydrogen fuel stations, and munitions plants.
Lightweight high-strength aluminum marine bar gratings engineered to endure salt-fog turbulence without structural fatigue.
Manufactured to ASTM, BS, and DIN standards with 100% material traceability and strict dimensional verification prior to seaworthy packing.
Every non-ferrous raw material heat receives Positive Material Identification to verify precise elemental composition before fabrication begins.
Panels are machined, notched, and fully banded with matching alloy perimeter bars to maintain full design load integrity and edge safety.
Chemical pickling, passivation, or electropolishing eliminates foreign surface impurities and enhances self-healing oxide barriers.
Packaged in fumigated solid timber cases with corrosion-inhibiting VCI foil layers for safe overseas container transport.
We fabricate custom non-ferrous gratings from structural and architectural aluminum (6061-T6, 6063-T6, 5052-H32), electrolytic grade copper (C11000), commercial and naval brass (C26000, C46400), cupro-nickel alloys (Cu-Ni 90/10 and 70/30), and phosphor bronze. All panels are built strictly to customer layout drawings and project load requirements.
Non-ferrous gratings are specified when steel or stainless steel cannot meet particular physical demands. Aluminum provides over 60% weight reduction and corrosion resistance without painting; copper and brass offer verified non-sparking safety in explosive atmospheres; and cupro-nickel alloys provide unmatched natural bio-fouling immunity and resistance to high-velocity seawater erosion in marine and offshore vessels.
Inside refining, chemical, and alcohol distillation columns, non-ferrous gratings serve as structural support grids for random packings (such as Raschig rings or saddles), structured packing beds, and catalyst retainers. The alloys prevent unwanted chemical reaction with process vapors, endure thermal cycling, and maximize open free area for liquid and gas flow.
All export consignments include complete EN 10204 Type 3.1 Mill Test Certificates (MTC), Positive Material Identification (PMI) spectrometer test reports, dimensional inspection certificates, welding procedure specifications (WPS/PQR), and heat-treated export packing certificates.
Yes. A substantial portion of our non-ferrous manufacturing involves vessel internal discs, annular rings, multi-segment pie pieces, and cut-outs for vertical pipe clearance. All segmented panels are stamped with individual piece-mark tags that correlate with assembly layout plans.
