SedCatch® Grate Inlet Covers
 Use
SedCatch® Grate Cover geotextile over grates to prevent sediment
from entering storm sewer system. Use in areas where ponding
will not be an issue. Heavy monofilament geotextile fabric is resistant to
tearing. Smooth top is easy to clean, with no seams to catch a broom or shovel.
Roll 3 ft x 330 ft of cover material.
Fabric Specifications
This is a side by side comparison of the geotextile SedCatch™ offers
for inlet protection to silt fence. The inlet geotextile on the left
is made of yarns that are several times the thickness of the tape yarns
of the silt fence on the right. The result is the inlet fabric has 3
times the strength. It also has 4 times as many openings per square
inch to give it a higher flow rate while the opening size remains the
same.
Instructions
To cover drain pipe
Cut a piece of sleeve material 2 ft longer
than opening. Cut a corrugated drain pipe 1 ft longer than opening.
Insert pipe in sleeve and close one end with hog rings or other
method. Insert schedule 40, leftover conduit, or tubing to keep
the pipe straight, throw in a few handfuls of gravel and seal
the other end. Some inspectors prefer you secure the pipe to
the grate with wire.
To Cover Grate
Cut a piece of geotextile 1 ft longer than opening.
Place grate upside down on geotextile. Fold sides in toward the
bottom and secure. Replace grate.
