Keep Your Workspace Clean with the 117 x 40cm Drip Tray
117 × 40 cm Long Narrow Drip Tray – 18 Litre
A 117 cm long, narrow drip tray designed to follow extended leak paths beneath pipework, machinery edges and elongated equipment where extra width would be unnecessary.
At a Glance
- External size: 117 × 40 × 4 cm
- Internal size: 113 × 35 × 4 cm approximately
- Capacity: 18 litres
- Material: Recycled polypropylene
- Primary purpose: extended narrow coverage beneath pipework, long equipment and service runs
What Is This Drip Tray Designed For?
The tray concentrates its footprint along a 117 cm length, covering several potential drip points while using less floor width than the 55 cm-wide shallow trays.
Positioning a correctly sized drip tray beneath a known leak source helps contain liquid at source, protects surrounding floors and makes routine housekeeping easier. It should be inspected and emptied before collected liquid reaches the usable capacity.
Typical Uses
- beneath long pumps, motors and narrow machinery
- below pipework joints, valves and filter housings
- along workshop benches or service runs
- under equipment where only a 40 cm-wide footprint is available
Why Choose This Size?
Choose this model for a long, narrow installation. The 110 × 55 cm tray is shorter but provides greater width and a larger 25-litre capacity.
Always measure the complete equipment or container footprint rather than relying only on its nominal width. Allow for feet, projecting fittings, hoses and the likely direction of any drip or spray.
Material and Liquid Compatibility
The tray is manufactured from recycled polypropylene, a durable, non-rusting material used for many everyday spill-containment applications. It is suitable for many oils, coolants, water-based liquids and commonly handled chemicals, but compatibility depends on the exact substance, concentration and temperature.
Check chemical compatibility before use. A drip tray is a secondary containment aid; it does not replace risk assessment, safe storage, suitable absorbents or a purpose-designed bund where legislation or site procedures require one.
Cleaning and Use
Remove collected liquid using a method appropriate to the substance. Wipe or rinse the tray after use and inspect it for damage before returning it to service. Do not mix incompatible liquids, and dispose of contaminated liquid and cleaning materials in accordance with site procedures and applicable waste requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this tray only 40 cm wide?
The narrow width is useful beneath long equipment or pipework where leaks occur along a line rather than across a broad base.
How much does it hold?
Its nominal capacity is 18 litres.
Can it be used below coolant or oil lines?
It can contain many common oils and coolants, subject to confirming compatibility with the exact liquid.
Dimensions, capacities and colours are nominal or approximate. Confirm that the tray is suitable for the intended equipment, liquid and working conditions before use.
