Ductile iron drain covers and grates are heavy-duty covers that offer a reliably high-strength and efficient solution. Ductile covers from Weldlok are suitable for sewers and pits on roads, footpaths, commercial corridors and heavy-duty industrial applications.

Five types of ductile solutions

Weldlok manufactures a range of high-quality ductile and drain cover solutions for pits and drainage. Our ductile drain covers are lightweight, easy to handle, efficient and cost-effective.

1. Concrete infill ductile squares

Concrete infill ductile squares are innovative drainage covers that enable quick and efficient concrete infilling. They work to seal the pit or drain from gas, water, or air ingress. Designed with a 4-piece frame and bolt-down security, the design allows for efficient precast and onsite installation. Concrete infill ductile squares are suitable for applications such as drains in footpaths, junction pits, OSD tanks and car parking. At Weldlok, concrete infill ductile squares can be purchased encased in concrete on request.
