How Used Crane Mats are Graded

3 GRADES OF USED CRANE MATS

Before purchasing used hardwood crane mats, it’s important that you understand the differences between the grading classifications (Grades A, B and C).  Otherwise, you may not receive the quality of crane mats that you intended to buy!

GRADE A USED CRANE MATS

Used Grade A Crane Mats are almost like new.  Timbers and bolts are intact and there are minimal signs of wear.  Typically have been used once.

GRADE B USED CRANE MATS

 Used Grade B Crane Mats maintain their structural integrity, but they don’t look as good as Grade A.   Grade B Crane Mats still have all timbers in tact, may have 1 bent or missing bolt and the end of the timbers may be worn.

GRADE C USED CRANE MATS

Used Grade C Crane Mats are significantly worn down.  Grade C Crane Mats may have broken or missing timbers, in addition to bent, broken or missing bolts.  These mats are typically used as filler for better mats.
