FT Pipeline Systems Unique Locking Lid Design Allows for Easy Maintenance
01.01.70
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, Oct 20, 2011 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
FT Pipeline Systems, one of the UK's leading pipe suppliers, is
advising the UK construction and water industry to use its
replacement locking lids in the future to ease maintenance and
cleaning constraints.
The FT Pipeline Systems replacement stop tap box lids are uniquely
designed compared to other available lids. They offer a
cost-effective solution to replacing damaged locking lids,
particularly in areas highly susceptible to vandalism. Each lid
contains a plastic locking mechanism that will not block up with dirt
or rust, thanks to the unique design incorporated within. This allows
for easy access at all times, making maintenance easy and quick.
Previous locking lids which may clog up with dirt or rust may require
further excavation around the lid, leading to increased costs
associated with replacements.
The unique design also offers customers a saving of GBP 75 to GBP 100
per lid, which when coupled with the reduced maintenance costs, can
save a large amount for FT Pipeline Systems customers. FT Pipeline
Systems also supply locking lids in over 450 different sizes to
ensure they have any size a customer may require.
