Cast Iron Power Lift Manways

Cast Iron Power Lift Manways

UPP™ brand power lift cast iron covers are designed for use on forecourts and refueling stations with heavy traffic where frequent access is required. They combine the strength and durability of cast iron construction with a spring loaded hinge mechanism that allows the covers to be opened and closed with ease. The lid will stay open at any angle without the need for a locking mechanism or stays, greatly increasing safety and time/manpower efficiencies on site.

  • The extremely hard wearing and durable covers will not spin out, buckle or loose shape due to pressure forces from vehicles.
  • The unique spring loaded hinge mechanism makes the ease of opening the ultra strong cast iron cover comparable to that of a lightweight composite cover.
  • Lockable design increases on site security and safety.
  • When locked, the covers become watertight due to the chemically resistant neoprene sealing gasket and internal drainage channel.
  • Surface liquids drain away from the cover preventing leaking into the underground containment.
  • Resistant to chemical corrosion from petroleum and alcohols and painted with a noncorrosive paint which protects the cover from rust.
  • Square, rectangle and round access model options.
  • Raised and flush mount model options.
  • Dip model available with integrated inspection port.
  • Each cover complies with the toughest engineering standards for access covers: BS EN 124 to Class D400 structural integrity as tested by Lloyds British Testing plc.
