Frequently asked questions

What cover types does the Unikey kit fit?

The kit is supplied with interchangeable tips, so one kit fits a range of manhole and inspection chamber cover types rather than needing a dedicated key for each.

What's included in the kit?

Two 440mm handles, a set of interchangeable tips, and a padded carry case with pockets for storage and transport.

What safe working load does the kit have?

350kg, tested to 1000kg in a straight and destructive test by Lloyds British Testing.

What is the kit made from?

Zinc-plated carbon steel, chosen for durability and corrosion resistance in wet drainage and sewer environments.

How much does the kit weigh?

4.066kg, including both handles.

Does the kit need any maintenance?

Keep the parts clean and apply grease to the handle mechanism periodically to keep it working smoothly.

Can I buy a single lifting key instead of the full kit?

Yes - see the 20" Manhole Lifting Key for a single dedicated key rather than the interchangeable-tip kit.
