"Non-metal" diamond plate sheet metal?

Recommended Posts

I saw a non-metal/fake diamond plate sheet metal in a ricer magazine a year or two ago. Anyways, I could really use it on a project I'm working on right now, but I can't remember what it is called/who makes it and I can't find it via Google.

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

The application it was used in the mag was a cheap solution for cut diamond plate for floorboard/mats. It comes in rolls and is easly cut with shears.

Thanks.

Hey Dave, try this...
http://www.autopure.com/chequer1.htm
Okay the company is based in Taiwan, but I'm sure you can find similar locally if you use some of their product descriptions and a little google....
Or google for "checker mat", or its European spelled cousin "chequer mat".

The real stuff is called checker (or chequer) plate over here, occasionally its also known as Durbar plate, Durbar being its original manufacturer.
Hope this helps,
Cy'all
