HERMEQ’s trench sheet driving cap delivers essential protection during the installation of trench sheeting and sheet piles. Constructed from industrial-grade steel, it absorbs repeated hammer impacts to prevent edge deformation and cracking, making it a reliable tool for groundwork and civil engineering projects.
Fitting directly over the top of a trench sheet or sheet pile, this driving cap distributes force from vibratory or percussive tools evenly across the surface. This significantly reduces the likelihood of damage and increases the overall durability of the trench sheeting system. Whether deploying trench sheets for excavation safety or shoring, the driving cap ensures clean, secure placement.
- Impact protection – Designed to shield sheet edges from deformation under driving pressure.
- Sheet compatibility – Suitable for use with most HERMEQ trench sheet and sheet pile profiles.
- Heavy-duty build – Fabricated from reinforced steel for prolonged service life and reliability.
- Efficient installation – Enhances trench sheeting workflow when used with piling hammers or excavator-mounted tools.
- Low maintenance – No complex upkeep required; routine inspection recommended for wear.
The trench sheeting process places high stress on materials. Without proper protection, the top edge of a trench sheet or sheet pile can sustain damage that reduces structural integrity. The HERMEQ trench sheet driving cap addresses this issue by providing a high-resilience buffer between the hammer and steel sheet. It’s a crucial addition to any contractor’s trench support system.
Made to perform under harsh UK site conditions, this cap is corrosion-resistant and available in a variety of sizes to match project requirements. Its design ensures both performance and flexibility in busy site environments.
HERMEQ stocks a wide range of Trench Sheets, Groundworks, Trench Covers & Road Plates conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.
