Cost-effective, easy to install and lightweight, this A15 plastic channel drainage from DekDrain is user-friendly and suitable for use by both professionals and DIYers. Featuring Disruptaflow linear bar grating, the innovative six-bar design blocks the flow of water and prevents it from crossing the grate. By doing so, water is collected with 100% efficiency into the channel drain.
With BS EN 1433 certified loading class, this channel drainage can withstand 1.5 tonnes. This means you can fit your channel drain in various applications, both light vehicular and pedestrian traffic. A15 channel drainage is especially great for driveways, patios, pedestrian areas and gardens.
The high-quality polypropylene channel body and grate are extremely durable and resistant to corrosion. Not only low in friction and high in strength, but the plastic linear bars also look seamless and sleek while minimising maintenance and encouraging self-cleaning.
With a Simple and Secure socket and spigot slide-in connection as well as click-and-connect bottom outlets for straightforward installation, this drain fixes to a 110mm plastic pipe with knockout bottom outlets on opposing ends of the channel. It also includes a spigot cutting point at 500mm, which can maintain joint reliability and integrity to resist stepping and sinking.
