Industrial buyers use several terms when searching for hardware that secures steel bar grating. One buyer may search for G-clips, another may search for grating clips, and a maintenance team may ask for grating anchors or grating fasteners. In many purchasing conversations, these terms point to the same practical need: a mechanical clip that holds grating to a supporting member without welding.
Anchor Point Hardware uses the GFX-GG product family for 19-space steel bar grating. These clips are selected by grating depth and structural flange thickness, then ordered by SKU. Understanding the terminology helps buyers find the right product page, but the final selection still depends on field measurements.
What is a G-clip?
A G-clip is a common name for a grating fastening clip with a top plate, bolt, and lower jaw that reaches beneath a support flange. The clip can be installed from above the grating, which helps on platforms, mezzanines, and walkways where underside access may be limited.
For Anchor Point Hardware, the listed GFX-GG clips are for 19-space steel bar grating. They are not universal clips for every grating spacing. That distinction matters because the top plate and jaw geometry must work with the grating configuration.
What are grating clips?
Grating clips is the broader search term. It can include saddle clips, plank grating clips, bar grating fasteners, and other mechanical hold-down hardware. When buyers search this way, they are often comparing fit, installation method, material, lead time, and whether the clip matches the installed grating.
The GFX-GG catalog covers a focused set of grating clips for 19-space steel bar grating from 1 inch through 2-1/2 inches deep. Each depth is identified by a letter. A starts at 1 inch, and each next letter increases by 1/4 inch.
What are grating anchors?
Grating anchors usually refers to the same hold-down function from an engineering or maintenance perspective. The word anchor emphasizes securing the grating panel to the supporting structure. The important selection questions are still the same: What is the grating depth, and what flange thickness does the lower jaw need to clear?
For flange thickness, use GFX-GG-1C style jaw sizing when the flange is up to 21/32 inch, and GFX-GG-2C style jaw sizing when the flange is over 21/32 inch and up to 1-11/32 inches. The letter changes with grating depth.
How to turn a search term into the correct SKU
Once you know the installed grating is 19-space steel bar grating, use the clip selector. Select the grating depth, then select the measured flange range. The recommendation updates automatically and points to the matching GFX-GG SKU if it is in the current catalog.
Buyers who already know the part number can go directly to the product pages. Buyers who only know the job condition should start with the selector and the current product stock chart. Both paths lead to the same inquiry builder for price and lead time.
