NDS 1211G Catch Basin Drain Grate, 12 Black Plastic

Introducing the Drain Grate - Your Drainage System's Guardian

The drain grate is a crucial component in protecting your drainage system from potential intruders such as dirt, leaves, and debris. Placed on top of catch basin drains, risers, or low-profile adapters, this essential tool defends drain pipes by blocking unwanted particles while allowing heavy flows of stormwater to pass through from lawns, landscaped areas, under downspouts, and away from patios and walkways.

Also referred to as drain covers, these grates ensure that your drain pipes remain clog-free and operate smoothly. The 12x12 drainage grate, a key element of a comprehensive drainage solution, is designed to work seamlessly with 12 in. catch basins, low-profile adapters, and risers connected to drain pipes that lead the water to a discharge point downstream. This could be a pop-up emitter or a method of percolating into the ground, such as a dry well or infiltration trench.

Constructed from polyethylene, a durable type of plastic treated with UV inhibitors to prevent damage from sun exposure, the 12 in. drain grate boasts a strategically designed open surface area of 53.1 sq. in. This allows for a flow rate capacity of 162 GPM. Moreover, the storm drain grate is rated for NDS Class B loads when properly installed, making it compliant with ADA requirements.
