Altrad Generation's HD2 Overlapping Trench Sheets are 8mm thick heavy-duty sheets designed for larger, deeper excavations where standard-weight trench sheets are not appropriate. With an effective width of 742mm, the HD2 covers significantly more ground per sheet than narrower profiles, reducing installation time on large-area excavation projects.
Offering similar strength to KKD/600 8mm sheets but with a wider coverage width, the HD2 is available in thirteen lengths from 2000mm to 8000mm, with weights from 108.34kg to 433.36kg. The HD2 is installed and extracted using Driving Caps, Quick Release Pitching Shackles, and Extraction Clamps from the Altrad Generation range.
HD2 Overlapping Trench Sheets are available for hire and purchase from Altrad Generation branches across the UK and Ireland.
