100 x 40cm Drip Tray
100 × 40 cm Low-Profile Drip Tray – 15 Litre
A one-metre-long, low-profile drip tray that provides extended leak coverage beneath narrow machinery, benches and service equipment without introducing a deep step around the installation.
At a Glance
- External size: 100 × 40 × 4 cm
- Internal size: 96 × 35 cm
- Capacity: 15 litres
- Material: Recycled polypropylene
- Primary purpose: long, low-clearance equipment and narrow machinery bases
What Is This Drip Tray Designed For?
The 100 cm length follows extended leak points, while the 4 cm height allows the tray to fit beneath equipment where deeper trays may not clear the base.
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
- under pumps, compressors and compact generators
- beneath long bench-mounted equipment
- in vehicle servicing areas for oil or coolant drips
- below pipework joints, valves or narrow process equipment
Why Choose This Size?
Choose this tray when length and low clearance matter more than depth. The 100 × 55 × 15 cm tray offers substantially greater capacity for equipment with a wider base.
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 choose a low-profile drip tray?
A low-profile tray can fit beneath machinery and installations with limited ground clearance while still capturing recurring drips.
How much liquid does it hold?
The nominal capacity is 15 litres.
Does it include a grid?
No. This is an open tray. A separate bunded or gridded version should be selected when containers must stand above collected 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.
