750 x 750mm Plain Seated Solid Top Manhole Cover, 5 Tonne

750 x 750mm Plain Seated Solid Top Manhole Cover, 5 Tonne

Description

This 750 x 750mm plain seated solid top manhole cover is designed for driveway and private access installations where reliable vehicle loading, visible access and durable steel construction are required. Unlike a recessed cover, the lid remains exposed after installation and does not require paving, concrete or tile infill.

Manufactured from mild steel, the cover and frame are hot dip galvanised to help resist corrosion in normal external environments. The lid features a raised tread pattern to improve grip underfoot and provide a practical finish for regularly used access points.

The square clear opening provides generous working space for drainage chambers, utility access points and inspection areas where improved access is required. The 50mm overall depth can assist where a deeper frame is preferred for bedding and replacement work.

This model has a fixed 5 Tonne gross plated weight rating and is intended for domestic driveways, cars and similar light vehicle traffic in private settings. It is not intended for public highways or heavy commercial traffic.

Integrated lifting keyholes are provided for removal using two CD 553 or CD 556 lifting keys, available separately.

View Collection

Is this cover sealed or locking?

No. This is a plain seated cover with no locking mechanism or compression seal. If odour control or security is required, choose a sealed and locking model.

Which lifting keys do I need?

This model requires two CD 553 or CD 556 lifting keys, sold separately.

Can this cover be used on public roads or highways?

No. The 5 Tonne rating is intended for domestic driveways and private light vehicle areas. Heavier traffic areas require a higher rated cover.

What does plain seated mean?

Plain seated means the lid sits directly onto the supporting frame without compression seals. It is a practical choice for external locations where odour or watertight sealing is not required.

What does clear opening mean?

Clear opening is the usable access size through the frame once the lid has been removed. For this model, the clear opening is 750mm x 750mm.
