Municipal & Utility Mould Category
Plastic moulds for precast concrete manhole covers and well frames: square 50 × 50 × 6 cm, rectangular 60 × 40 × 6 cm, a round five-hole sewer cover Ø 80 × 5.5 cm, a cover-plus-frame set and a Ø 68 cm round well frame. Every dimension below is read off the mould photo, not estimated.
Manhole and inspection-well moulds are a stable infrastructure product line for municipal drainage networks, sewer systems, road projects, sidewalks, residential communities, industrial parks and utility access points.
Zhihua supplies plastic moulds for square and rectangular manhole covers, round sewer covers with cast-in drainage holes, and round well frames that seat the cover. If you also need to build the chamber walls below the cover, see our shaft ring brick and well wall brick moulds. Standard catalogue items and OEM designs from drawings, markings or sample photos are both available.
Five verified cover and frame moulds with real finished dimensions read off our own workshop photos. Modular shaft and wall bricks for building the chamber below the cover are on the shaft & wall brick mould page.

Cover moulds are quoted on finished slab size, not on the mould's outer size. Read this before sending an enquiry.
This is the single most common source of re-quoting. A cover slab cast on its own will not sit flush unless the surrounding frame was cast from a matching mould with the correct seat clearance.
We do not publish load classes for this category. Load class is a property of your finished concrete mix and reinforcement, not of the plastic mould, and quoting one would be misleading.

Cover projects usually hinge on a local drainage standard and a marking requirement. A photo of the cover you need plus the finished slab dimensions is normally enough for us to quote.
Send your local cover/well drawing, size or sample photo. We can review catalogue options or OEM mould feasibility.

If your site already has steel frames or existing concrete seats, the cover mould alone is enough — but send the seat opening size so the cover is dimensioned to drop into it. Where both parts are cast, order them as a matched set so the seat clearance is designed in.
We do not quote a load class, because it is not a property of the plastic mould. Load capacity comes from your concrete mix, reinforcement and slab thickness. The 6 cm and 5.5 cm covers here are typical pedestrian and light-utility sections; for trafficked covers, design your own reinforcement and tell us the finished thickness you need.
Yes. Logo, lettering, utility name and anti-slip surface patterns can be discussed from drawings or clear sample photos.
