Irish construction equipment supplier Ridgeway has introduced its latest product, Bridge Slot precision perforated metal.

Bridge Slot screens are specially designed for use in drying and storing all sorts of solid materials.

The Bridge Slot Perforation is a special perforation with the combination of heavy sheet thickness and very fine openings, making it ideal for filtering and ventilation.

It is often used for water drainage shafts and drying.

Typical applications include:

• Drying and storing solid matters and materials of all kinds

• Filters for fountains and drainage.

The Bridge Slot has been created to enable a unique flow of air via the slots. This allows for a significant improvement in air circulation and reduces drying times which increases efficiency. Within the right storage and heating conditions moisture content can be significantly reduced. 

It is manufactured using mild steel between 2mm and 5mm thick. This makes the screens ideal to for use as "drive-on" flooring in large storage areas. The Bridge Slot system screens with the right support can take wide wheeled trucks for bulk loading and offloading.

Each perforated slot resembles a bridge with a slotted opening. The opening can be adjusted to suit the application. This prevents grain or wood-chip falling through the slots.
