Industrial Fabrics Baselok GC30T US Fabric Equivalent is EGA 30

EnviroGrid® EGA 30 is a three-dimensional cellular confinement system that provides confinement and reinforcement to granular material for
load support erosion control, slope protection and retaining wall applications.

EnviroGrid® EGA 30 sections are manufactured from 58 strips of HDPE, resulting in a section length of 29 cells. Each strip is the approved width and 142 inches (3.6m) in length.

Baselok GC30T standard sections are manufactured from 58 strips of HDPE, resulting in a section length of 29 cells and 11 cells wide. Each strip is the appropriate width and 300 inches (7.62m) in length. Weld spacing is 28.0 in ± 0.12 in. (355 ± 3mm). Cell density is 8.3 cells per meter squared. Cell walls are textured and if perforations are required 13% ± 3% of the cell wall is removed. Polyethylene strip shall be textured and with a multitude of rhomboidal (diamond shape) indentations. The rhomboidal indentations shall have a surface density of 22 to 31 per cm2 (140 to 200 per in2). This data sheet for Baselok GC30T is provided for comparison purposes only.
