Altrad Generation's KKD600/6 Overlapping Trench Sheets are the most widely used lap trench sheet in the range, chosen by groundwork contractors across the UK for their strength, reliability, and versatility across medium to deep excavation projects. At 6mm thick and manufactured to S275 JR steel grade, the KKD600/6 is designed for excavations where the lighter 3.5mm Standard Overlapping sheet does not provide sufficient strength.
Available in nine lengths from 3000mm to 7000mm, with weights from 109.2kg to 254.8kg, the KKD600/6 suits a wide range of trench depths and soil conditions. Sheets are driven vertically into the ground using a driving cap to prevent damage during installation, and are extracted using Extraction Clamps at the end of the project. Quick Release Pitching Shackles allow safe sheet positioning from ground level.
KKD600/6 Overlapping Trench Sheets are available for hire and purchase from Altrad Generation branches across the UK and Ireland.
