The perfect solution for blocked keways GritBlockerAccess cover keyways filled with debris can lead to incorrect lifting of a manhole covers out of the ground, creating a health and safety risk. Fixing this can take time and can be potentially dangerous to operatives. GritBlocker is an anti-blockage keyway insert which simply fits into the manhole cover keyway preventing debris from blocking the opening and allows a lifting key to be inserted. The Gritblocker solutionThe Challenge of Grit-Filled KeywaysFor too long, maintenance teams have grappled with the issue of grit accumulation in manhole cover keyways. This seemingly minor problem can lead to significant delays, increased labour costs, and frustration, as lifting keys become impossible to insert, hindering essential maintenance work. GritBlocker is our answer to this pervasive issue. Crafted from a resilient, spongy material, this simple insert is designed to fit snugly within any manhole cover keyway. It acts as a barrier against grit and debris from the road, ensuring that keyways remain clear and accessible for lifting keys at all times. Innovative Design: Tailored to fit seamlessly into manhole cover keyways, preventing the ingress of grit and debris. Easy to Use: GritBlocker's spongy material allows for quick insertion, facilitating access for lifting keys whilst blocking grit. Durability: Created to withstand the rigours of road environments, GritBlocker is both durable and reliable. Cost-Effective: By ensuring keyways are always accessible, GritBlocker reduces the time and labour costs associated with manhole maintenance. The problemManhole lid keyway pockets are often filled with debris which prevents the insertion of lifting key equipment to such an extent that operatives attempt other unsafe methods of lid removal. A long time can be wasted on site by operatives attempting to clear keyways enough to allow key insertion, particularly where covers have not been accessed for some time. The solutionWe have solved this common issue with a simple, but effective remedy: An anti-blockage keyway insert which fills the lid keyway pocket. Gritblocker prevents detrimental debris ingress, but allows the insertion and rotation of a lifting key. More available accessories
