It connects two Lite Aqua channel lengths at right angles, allowing drainage runs to follow the layout of patios, paths and other landscaped areas.Manufactured from polyethylene and fitted with a black composite grating, this corner maintains the same 1.5 tonne load rating as the rest of the Lite Aqua range, making it suitable for pedestrian applications where reliable surface water control is required.

Its key benefit is providing a 100% watertight connection for angled drainage runs on patios and paths. A potential caveat is its Class A15 load rating, limiting it to pedestrian applications.
