Trench Sheet Driving Cap
Altrad Generation’s Driving Caps are designed to protect the heads of Trench Sheets during installation, minimising deformation and extending sheet life. When Trench sheets are driven into the ground, whether using hydraulic, vibratory, or manual equipment, the cap acts as a buffer between the impact force and the sheet, reducing wear on the profile and ensuring correct sheet alignment.
Our driving caps are available in three variants:
Universal Driving Cap – Lightweight and versatile
BD Driving Cap – Heavier-duty option for deeper sheets
HD Driving Cap – High-durability option for demanding installations
Each cap is built to withstand the rigours of piling on-site and helps deliver a safer and more efficient Trench Sheet installation process. These caps are fully compatible with our Standard Overlapping Trench Sheets, Quick Release Pitching Shackles, and Extraction Clamps, forming part of a complete temporary works system for ground support.

What is a driving cap used for?
