HERMEQ’s Plastic Trench Cover is a U.S.-ready pedestrian trench board made from impact-resistant HDPE with embedded steel reinforcement. It spans trenches and ducting channels up to 48 in (1200 mm) long and handles up to 880 lb (400 kg) of foot traffic, making it ideal for public right-of-way protection during civil works and utility jobs.
The anti-slip surface and beveled anti-trip edges ensure safety on U.S. footpaths and job sites. Built-in handles allow one-person lift (just 37 lb), and the 4 integrated bolt holes allow semi-permanent anchoring to asphalt or concrete. Bright yellow finish improves visibility during day or night.
