Stainless open channel trench drains

Bar grates or solid covers

Open trough trenches come standard with bar grating, or an optional solid plate with perimeter drainage. They are mostly used in commercial and industrial buildings where forklifts and pallet jacks are used extensively.

12 gauge stainless bodies

It's our standard practice to form trench drain bodies from 12 GA stainless steel at a minimum. Why?

• It's 28.61% thicker than 14 GA material, and the real cost difference is minimal.
• It's easier to field weld together at the job site.
• 14–16 GA tends to warp during field welding.

We'll build to your specification

Over the years we've fabricated hundreds, if not thousands, of stainless steel trench drains — and so far there hasn't been one we couldn't fabricate. One size does not fit all: we design and supply trench drains to the highest quality standards for every customer, from multi-million dollar corporations to the family-owned butcher shop down the street.

Decades of experience

Most of our stainless drain designs have been tried-and-true workhorses for 30+ years. There's a reason we stock 12" stainless drains, cleanouts, P-traps, hub drains and laterals: stainless drain products are needed to fast-track projects.

The right conditions for a drain differ based on its intended use. You can rely on us to offer customized designs that match your specific needs. Let's work together on your next project.
