Details
Engineered for secure underground access at fueling and industrial sites, the Franklin EBW Safe-Lite FRC bolt-down cover is a 36″ round, gray fiber-reinforced composite manhole cover that weighs almost one-third less than comparable steel covers. The reduced weight dramatically lowers the risk of back and lifting injuries during routine cover removal, while the bolt-down design keeps the cover securely fastened in place to deter unauthorized access and resist displacement under traffic.
Part of EBW’s composite manway line, this replacement cover is engineered for high strength and tested to a 20,000 lb. load without failure, meeting or exceeding H20 and HS20 load ratings. It is built to withstand the demands of high-traffic environments such as service stations, commercial fueling islands, and industrial yards where durable, traffic-rated access points are required. Each cover ships with a handle for easier handling.
