Nds 40 6 Inch Black Round Drain Grate Uv Resistant

Product Description

The NDS 40 is a 6-inch round drain grate molded from structural foam polyolefin with built-in UV inhibitors. It is designed for surface drainage applications where a durable, weather-resistant cover is required over a basin or drain pipe outlet. The open surface area measures 9.11 square inches, supporting a flow rate of 11.92 GPM. Licensed plumbers, irrigation contractors, and drainage installers typically fit this grate as part of a complete catch basin or pipe termination assembly. The black finish blends with standard installations and holds up under prolonged sun exposure without significant color fade or material degradation.

This grate is rated for pedestrian, bicycle, and wheelchair traffic, making it appropriate for walkways, parking areas, ADA-compliant pathways, and light commercial paved surfaces. It fits NDS Speed Basin units, 6-inch sewer drain pipe fittings, and 6-inch corrugated pipe. This makes it a practical choice for residential yard drainage, parking lot inlets, and similar outdoor drainage systems where foot and light wheel traffic is expected.
