Description
The 100mm D400 channel drainage system provides a robust surface water drainage solution for commercial, civil and trafficked applications where a D400 load class is required.
Manufactured as part of the Polycon 8LOX range, the system combines a high-strength polymer concrete channel body with a D400 ductile iron slotted grating and galvanised steel edge rail. The integrated 8-point locking mechanism secures the grating within the channel, providing stability and durability in areas subject to regular vehicle traffic.
With a 100mm internal width, 140mm overall width and 1000mm channel length, the system is available in seven overall depths ranging from 80mm to 290mm, allowing the appropriate channel depth to be selected according to the drainage and installation requirements of the project.

Typical Applications
The 100mm D400 channel drainage system is suitable for applications including:
- Car parks
- Service yards
- Industrial and commercial developments
- Warehouses and distribution areas
- Agricultural and farm yards
- Civil engineering projects
- Other trafficked drainage applications where D400 channel drainage is specified
8-Point Locking Ductile Iron Grating
The Polycon 8LOX system incorporates an 8-point locking mechanism designed to hold the ductile iron grating securely within the channel. This provides increased stability and helps minimise grating movement in trafficked applications.
The galvanised steel edge rail protects and reinforces the upper edges of the polymer concrete channel, providing additional durability in demanding commercial and civil installations.
System Accessories
Compatible system accessories include D400 sump units, end caps and outlet end caps, allowing complete channel drainage runs to be configured around individual project requirements.
The matching 100mm sump unit provides an access point for inspection and maintenance and incorporates a 110mm outlet for connection to the downstream drainage system.
Outlet end caps are also available, with outlet size dependent on the selected channel depth.
Wider D400 Channel Drainage Options
Where greater hydraulic capacity is required, the D400 range is also available with 150mm and 200mm internal channel widths.
These wider channel systems provide increased drainage capacity while retaining the heavy-duty polymer concrete construction, ductile iron grating and secure locking arrangement used across the range.
