[RE-wrenches] Supporting heavy flooded batteries

[Hilton Dier III]

A suggestion: McNichols Corp, among others, deals in pultruded 
fiberglass extrusions, including various grids. Pultruded fiberglass is 
strong and acid resistant. It comes in just about any shape that you can 
get in steel, including sheets, C-channel, angle, and I-beam. I've even 
seen pultruded bolts to put it all together. I've never had the 
opportunity to use it in a battery box but it seems like the right stuff.

A number of industrial supply companies sell walkway decking in this 
kind of material.
