Open Top Slotted Drain

Lane’s OTSD is a practical combination of pipe and inlet structure that reduces or eliminates the need for traditional catch basin structures, and has the added value of efficiently managing surface water sheet flow. A completely galvanized system constructed by securing a slotted grate atop Lane’s corrugated metal pipe, OTSD is designed specifically to intercept and convey sheet flow on roadways, loading docks, parking lots, airport surfaces or factory floors.

Open-top slotted drain pipe offers several advantages over a typical checkerboard paving pattern, with its array of catch basins and connecting pipe.

• Reduces the number of, or eliminates catch basins
• Reduces the length of pipe required to drain the site
• Simplifies the paving layout
• Reduces maintenance difficulty
