PRE-SLOPED TRENCH DRAIN SYSTEMS

PolyDrain

PolyDrain® is a presloped & modular concrete trench drain channel. Combine interlocking trench drain sections to create runs of almost any configuration and length. In addition to its versatility, with precision pre-casting, you get a high-quality pre-sloped drainage channel product that requires less onsite labor.

Replace site-built drainage products with factory-built performance, consistency, and reliability.

Life Safety Choice

NFPA requires nonflammable trench drains

Selecting a fire-resistant pre-sloped trench drain system should be common practice for any interior application. Trench Drains are often the collection points for flammable fluids and heavier-than-air vapors.  As a result, even empty trenches can act as a pathway for flame spread.  For more info, see our Flame and Smoke page.

PolyLock Inserts

Vibration dampening inserts help keep grates secure under load conditions.  PolyDrain channels feature RedDot polyethylene or GreenDot polypropylene inserts.

Longitudinal Anchor Joint

The full-length keyway joint mechanically anchors the channel to the surrounding concrete encasement.

PolyLock Retention

Locking devices are recommended for all applications with loading requirements greater than residential and pedestrian traffic or where vandalism may be an issue.

Grate and Cover Choice

We offer a wide selection of grate options to meet any of your design aesthetic and structural load requirements.

Numeric Labeling

PolyDrain channels feature cast numeric labels to make installation easy and simple.

Directional Arrow

PolyDrain channels feature cast directional arrows to indicate the direction of water flow and ensure proper layout and installation.

Interlocking Joints

Interlocking tongue and groove joints aid positive alignment and provide a tighter joint.

Polymer Concrete

polydyn phsical properties

All PolyDrain channels are available in two polymer concrete formulations. Both offer superior strength and durability over alternative materials. All PolyDrain Polyester channels are UL classified.

Sloping Radius Bottom

PolyDrain channels have a built-in 0.6% slope and smooth radius bottom.

Product Data

Pre-Slopped Trench Drain Systems

The PolyDrain pre-sloped, polymer concrete trench drain system is designed for a wide range of surface drainage applications. Its modular precast construction provides design flexibility, improved accuracy, reduced labor requirements, and lower installation costs compared to traditional hand-formed, cast-in-place trench drains.

  • Superior chemical resistance compared to Portland cement concrete.
  • Higher strength and lower water absorption for long-term durability.
  • Enhanced freeze/thaw performance in harsh environments.
  • Resistant to salt, oil, most acids, alkalis, and UV exposure.
  • Maintains structural integrity in demanding commercial and industrial applications.

Performance & Application Benefits

With its smooth interior finish, radius bottom, and integrated 0.6% slope, PolyDrain channels achieve flow velocities up to 1 m/s (3.5 ft/s) even on flat grades. This high hydraulic efficiency helps minimize debris buildup and enhances long-term performance.

The PolyDrain system also includes specialty components for liquid containment, utility trenches, and limited-space installations, providing a complete solution for nearly any drainage application. Manufactured by ABT Inc., a leader in modular drainage technology, PolyDrain delivers durability and performance trusted in commercial and industrial settings.
