500kg Concrete Ballast Block
Product Description
500kg Concrete Ballast Block
Important Safety Information
Please Note: You will need a pair of M20 lifting loops (sold separately) to safely manoeuvre this ballast block. The M20 lifting loops can be removed and reused on different ballast blocks.
Strong & Versatile Solution
500kg precast concrete ballast blocks provide a robust and versatile option for securing:
- Marquees and gazebos
- Event tents
- Shipping containers
- Various temporary installations
- Temporary fencing, hoarding, and barriers
High-Quality Construction
Manufactured from C60 concrete, these blocks are designed for exceptional strength and durability. They can withstand significant weight loads applied by the structures they secure.
Unlike water-filled ballast alternatives, concrete blocks are not at risk of punctures or leaks, eliminating the danger of sudden instability.
Compact, Space-Saving Design
Each 500kg ballast block measures:
805mm (L) x 445mm (W) x 655mm (H)
This compact design ensures efficient weight distribution while conserving valuable space, making it especially useful in areas with limited ground availability.
Easy to Use & Install
Precast concrete blocks arrive ready for immediate deployment, with no excavation, curing time, or complex installation required. Their size and weight remain manageable, often avoiding the need for heavy machinery.
Efficient Storage & Handling
The stackable design of these ballast blocks makes them simple to store when not in use. This is ideal for rental companies or organisations that frequently set up temporary structures.
Environmentally Conscious Choice
- Reusable and durable: Precast construction minimises the need for new materials.
- Water-conserving: Eliminates reliance on water-filled alternatives.
- Weather-resistant: C60 concrete withstands rain, snow, and high winds, ensuring stability in all conditions.
Low Maintenance
These ballast blocks require very little upkeep. An occasional clean with water and a brush is all that’s needed to maintain their appearance and performance.
