Vestil Manufacturing PLID-D-100 D-style Hopper Lid

Product Description

The VESTIL MANUFACTURING PLID-D-100 is a heavy-duty polyethylene D-style lid designed for self-dumping hoppers with a 1 cubic yard capacity. It covers hopper contents to protect them from weather exposure and keep the work area tidy. The poly construction keeps the lid lightweight compared to steel alternatives, reducing noise during closing and making everyday operation straightforward. A multi-bracket connection allows the lid to swing freely up and down without restriction. At 57 pounds and measuring 61 inches long by 42 inches wide by 6 inches tall, it is a substantial, well-built cover suited for industrial and warehouse environments.

This lid is intended for use in industrial facilities, warehouses, manufacturing plants, and distribution centers where self-dumping hoppers handle bulk materials, scrap, or waste. It is a practical addition wherever hopper contents need to stay contained and protected from rain, dust, or debris. The PLID-D-100 can be field-installed by maintenance personnel on existing 1 cubic yard hoppers or factory-installed when ordered with the PLID-INSTALL option from the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance or material handling personnel using standard hand tools.
