SAFETY AS STANDARD
SmartGrip TechnologyTM has been designed by Eccles to improve road safety,
featuring as standard on our entire range of access covers and frames.
Vad är smartgrip?
SmartGrip TechnologyTM är en asymmetrisk toppskiva med upphöjt mönster för Eccles sortiment av luckor och ramar för tillträde.
Den har utformats med en hög multidirektionell mikrotextur för att förbättra stabiliteten mot akvaplaning.
Med mikrotextur avses den småskaliga texturen på den övre delen av det upphöjda mönstret (som kontrollerar kontakten mellan däckgummit och ytan på tillträdesskyddet).
Makrotextur avser den storskaliga texturen på täckplattan som helhet, på grund av det upphöjda mönstret.
- INCREASES TRACTION AND CONTACT GRIP
- ENHANCES STABILITY
- PREVENTS AQUAPLANING
- IMPROVES SAFETY FOR ALL ROAD USERS
ENHANCED SKID RESISTANCE
After significant research with our partnered European University, the raised pattern on our SmartGrip TechnologyTM has now been significantly enhanced to provide as standard an enhanced skid resistance exceeding the minimum requirements for high-risk areas of > 0.83kN as specified in DMRB CD534 V 0.1.0 (table 2.6).
The testing process adheres to the procedure outlined in the National Highways’ Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB), as well as the Technical Regulation CD 534 v0.1.0, formally known as Volume 4, Part 5, HA104/09, sub-section 3.4, which details the information pertinent for applications in road safety and infrastructure projects.
INCLUDED ACROSS OUR WHOLE PRODUCT RANGE
Road safety is a critical consideration for us that’s why SmartGrip TechnologyTM features as standard across our entire product range.
This includes solid top ductile iron and composite access covers, surface boxes and bridge drainage solutions.
