The F900 double triangular manhole cover, with a 750 × 750 mm clear opening, is engineered for the most demanding applications where extreme wheel loads of up to 900 kN (90 tonnes) are expected. Certified to meet BS EN 124:2015 standards, this robust cover design is ideal for use in highways, industrial zones, and ports, where high traffic volumes, heavy vehicles, and frequent stress cycles are common. The double triangular pattern not only enhances structural integrity but also facilitates a more secure grip during installation and maintenance.

Crafted from GGG500/7 ductile iron, a material known for its excellent fatigue resistance and high tensile strength, the cover ensures reliable, long-term performance under rigorous conditions. The integrated lifting system, along with precision-machined edges, guarantees ease of handling while maintaining a tight, non-rock fit during use. A corrosion-resistant coating, usually in bitumen or epoxy finish, extends the service life of the manhole cover, making it ideal for harsh environmental conditions such as coastal areas or industrial sites with exposure to chemicals.

Product Overview

• Durable Construction: Made from high-strength GGG500/7 ductile iron (ISO 1083), the cover resists impact, fatigue, and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance.

• Double Triangular Pattern: The unique double triangular shape optimizes weight distribution, increasing the overall structural strength while facilitating easy lifting and maneuvering.

• F900 Load Rating: Designed to withstand an impressive 900 kN load, this cover is perfect for areas with heavy truck traffic, such as highways, ports, and loading docks.

Key Specifications
