Why it works

Why it works

Floats that stay put

Clamp Tite™ inserts compress and add friction so floats don’t slip along the pipeline, and EzGlide™ tapered ends let wind and water pass with less resistance.

Built for hard sites

Impact-resistant polyethylene with UV inhibitors holds up to sun and heavy use. Ice-protected floats withstand being frozen in place, and walkways and platforms ride high enough to pop free of ice.

Simple to ship and install

Built-in legs let pipe floats stack for transport and storage. Walkways and platforms come as 5 × 10 ft kits with hardware, and one person can install a pump station with a forklift and a socket wrench.
