Polycrete® Rhinocast® Cast-Iron Infill Covers
Polycrete® Rhinocast® Cast-Iron Infill Covers provide a premium solution for securing and protecting underground infrastructure. Constructed from robust ductile iron, these covers are designed for various applications, ranging from pedestrian walkways to heavy-duty environments like roadways, docks, and industrial areas. Available in Class B, Class D, and Class G ratings, these covers deliver the durability and reliability needed to maintain safe and secure access to underground utilities.
Understanding Infill Covers
Rhinocast® recessed infill covers seamlessly blend with the surrounding surface material, such as tiles, concrete, or pavers. This design not only ensures that the cover integrates perfectly into its environment but also offers easy access to the utilities below. Infill covers prove especially beneficial in areas where aesthetics matter, including urban streetscapes, commercial plazas, and other public spaces.
Advantages of Infill Covers:
- Seamless Integration: Infill covers allow surface material to be laid directly into the cover, ensuring that it blends perfectly with its surroundings. This feature is ideal for maintaining the visual integrity of pedestrian areas, streetscapes, and high-profile locations.
- Durability and Strength: Rhinocast® infill covers, made from ductile iron, offer superior strength and durability. This construction ensures the covers withstand heavy loads and harsh conditions, making them suitable for both light and heavy-duty applications.
- Protection and Security: These covers provide watertight and gas-tight seals, protecting the infrastructure below from water ingress, gas leaks, and other environmental factors. The option for locking mechanisms adds an extra layer of security, preventing unauthorized access.
- Versatile Applications: Whether you need a cover for a pedestrian area (Class B), a roadway (Class D), or industrial areas with extreme loads (Class G), Rhinocast® infill covers offer a versatile solution tailored to your project’s specific demands.
