What is this metal pattern called and where do I get it?
This aluminum tread plate makes up the bed of my unimog. I want to get a sheet of it to replace a missing section at the front, but I don't know what it's called or where to find it. I've done some basic searches but all I've found are "standard" diamond plate. An image search thinks it's a background image.

This. You can also get fake plastic matting that looks legit.

Thanks! Since it's going to be part of the truck bed (the forward vertical section) it has to be real metal

At IMS in San Diego it is called "Fireman's Tread" so their wet boots won't slip on it.
