Ductile Iron D400 Hinged Pedestrian Friendly Mesh Grating
This ductile iron D400 hinged mesh grating gives drainage access where vehicles run and people walk. The mesh takes surface water quickly while staying safe underfoot, and the hinge lets the grate swing open for inspection or clearing without lifting the whole unit out of its frame.
