Learn More about the HDPE Log & Trash Boom

This heavy duty log and debris boom is designed for demanding applications, such as controlling logs, timbers, and heavier debris. It has been made using 1/2" HDPE material to provide a barrier that is durable and can be used for long-term use.

These booms are typically used in the following areas:

• Rivers
• Dams
• Marinas
• Power Plants
• Intakes
• Bays & Harbors

The HDPE Boom is connected through marine grade connectors and can be shackled to create almost any required length. Each panel contains a bolt-on high impact float and a lead weight or chain ballast that helps keep the unit in the vertical positions. This strength helps to control those larger or heavier items.

To install this boom, first set your shore and bottom anchors in their required areas prior to deploying the boom. Next, shackles the panels of your debris boom together (booms can be connected at the top and bottom of the corner plates) in order to make your desired length.

After your boom has reached its desired length, float and anchor the boom to conform to your desired layout.
