Feed-Stop Walling.
Steel where it scrapes. Concrete where it sits.
3m precast feed-stop wall units with a galvanised steel lip cast into the top edge — the part the tractor bucket scrapes against every feeding round. Cast in C40/50 concrete, mix matched to the exposure specified. Please call to check current yard stock or current lead times.
A feed-stop wall is the upright concrete face of a silage clamp — the part the loader bucket scrapes when taking the next feed cut. WCCP feed-stops cast a 6 mm × 100 mm (¼in × 4in) galvanised steel lip into the top edge so the wear hits the steel, not the concrete.
We cast and deliver UK-wide — the right answer for new silage clamps, AD feedstock storage, and SSAFO 2018 refurb work. Units are supplied loose for installation by your own groundworker or contractor.
- · Galvanised steel lip
- · Sulphate-resisting C40/50

Where they go
Common applications.
From a 1500-tonne dairy clamp in Devon to a 6000-tonne AD feedstock store in the Midlands, the feed-stop unit is the same — it is the lip that earns its keep.
