The Rota Slot is a water-filled temporary fencing ballast block designed to add weight to compatible Heras-style temporary mesh fencing. Its polyethylene body can be positioned while empty and filled with water on site, making it a practical option where substantial additional ballast is required.
Available in red and white. Choose your colour using the product options above.
Rota Slot Ballast at a Glance
The wind-test result is not a universal safe wind-speed limit for every installation. Actual fencing stability depends on the full setup and site conditions.
Key Features
Position the unit while empty, then add water on site to increase its weight.
Provides substantial ballast for compatible temporary fencing systems.
Manufactured from polyethylene to contain the water ballast.
Two colour options are available through the product variants.
Typical Applications
The Rota Slot can be used as part of a compatible temporary fencing arrangement on:
- Construction and civil engineering sites
- Roadworks and maintenance projects
- Events and temporary compounds
- Exposed sites where additional ballast has been specified
The suitability and quantity of ballast required depend on the fencing configuration, ground conditions, exposure and any screening or attachments.
How the Rota Slot Works
- Position the empty unit as part of the compatible fencing arrangement.
- Fill it with water on site in accordance with the product instructions.
- Check the completed fencing setup and its stability for the specific site conditions.
