GritBlocker, a foam insert that sits in the keyway to stop debris ingress and which remains in place whilst a key is inserted and rotated, solves both of these problems.
Simon Gibson, technical director at Wrekin Products, said: “We understand the problems that groundworkers face during their day to day work; solving these issues effectively is what Wrekin does best and we believe we’ve done it again with GritBlocker. It’s an incredibly simple solution that saves time and improves safety.”
To mark the launch of this innovative solution, thousands of Wrekin manhole covers across the country will have GritBlocker pre-installed for free. You can find these covers by looking for the distinctive Wrekin yellow GritBlocker tag attached to the frame at your local supplier or merchant over the coming months whilst stocks last.
GritBlocke™ will also be sold separately and can be installed on virtually any cover.
