WAVIN LAUNCH DUCTILE IRON B125 RANGE

Leading plumbing and drainage manufacturer, Wavin has launched B125, a new range of covers and frames to complement its extensive A15 offering designed for use in gravity drainage installations.

The Ductile Iron B125 covers and frames, available in 450mm and 600mm square sizes, are designed for use in private residential and non-residential pedestrian areas – making them ideal for single domestic driveways and public footpaths.

With the rise of SUVs and EVs, modern cars are getting both bigger and heavier. A typical family car can now weigh over 2 tonnes. As the new B125 range covers a maximum weight loading of 12.5 tonnes, this offers peace of mind for any family car or van.

Independently tested and certified, the B125 rated covers are also the recommended requirement for non-trafficked public spaces – supporting local authorities and developers with their drainage. Features of the B125 covers include a 75mm frame depth and all-round square edges, ideal for fast and easy installation into block paving and improved tarmac adhesion. Additionally, the range includes optional cover locking points for increased security for higher risk areas.
Steve Jeffries, product manager at Wavin, said: “The launch of our Wavin Ductile Iron B125 covers and frames is set to advance our drainage offerings and help contractors ensure a high quality and durable installation in domestic driveways and public pedestrian areas.

“The Wavin drainage inspection chambers offer several base and shaft configurations to gain access to underground drainage pipelines, giving specifiers and installers the freedom to choose the most suitable system for their needs. The covers are for use with Wavin 450 Universal and Tegra 600 Inspection Chambers. The development of our B125 covers and frames provides additional options for those in the industry.”
