Triangular Silt Dike

A Reusable and Lightweight Check Dams

A Triangular Silt Dike is a lightweight barrier consisting of urethane foam and geotextile fabric. It’s an alternative to rock check dams, bale barriers, silt fences, wire-back silt fences, or straw wattles. This temporary structure stops or slows concentrated water flow across a swale or channel. Ferguson Waterworks carries additional check dam products. This stock includes the Erosion Eel, an environmentally-friendly check dam that utilizes washed shredded rubber for internal fill. Furthermore, both products are reusable.

Triangular Silt Dike Specifications:

Designed with protective aprons on both sides of the barrier, there is only one sewn seam (on the front upstream side) which allows the barrier to be configured in several different orientations. There are several applications for the various sizes of barriers – please call your local Ferguson Waterworks expert to get those specs.
