Structure Guard, Inc.
puts over 60 years of utility maintenance management experience at your disposal. We have pioneered non-metallic trash rack technology that can save you maintenance dollars from "day one".

Structure Guard non-metallic racks will eliminate, forever, all maintenance procedures associated with the prevention of rust, corrosion and electrolysis. All classes of marine growth will be severely limited and easily cleaned. In fresh water use the Structure Guard trash rack will eliminate frazil ice buildup. Hydrodynamic leading edges will increase efficient water passage to turbine units and pumps. Structure vibration will be reduced.

Structure Guard thermoplastic trash racks are manufactured in all configurations from 3/4" clearance to heavy industrial log screens. At 1/6 the weight of steel, they are easily installed and have a virtually unlimited useful life.

Fish entrainment regulations may be met with the installation of a seasonal plastic overlay of placement of permanent plastic blades between the existing steel. The 1" mandated spacing between trash rack blades may be achieved with little additional weight and at a far lower cost than designing and building new trash rack sections.

Structure Guard manufactures both steel and plastic trash racks, fully assembled and site engineered for your location. Structure Guard plastic trash racks are presently utilized by major hydro electric, nuclear and fossil generating facilities and water treatment plants throughout the United States.

We would welcome the opportunity of quoting your trash rack requirements.
