14 Dec Engineered to Endure: Withstanding Impacts from Ice
Did You Know Our Equipment Excels in Icy Waters?
At Whipps, Inc., we take pride in manufacturing water control equipment that stands up to the most challenging environments—including icy waters. Our ability to customize solutions from our headquarters ensures that our equipment meets the specific requirements of any installation site, even in freezing conditions.
Challenges of Icy Waters
Icy waters present unique challenges for water control equipment. Dropping temperatures can make materials brittle, and ice chunks can impact submerged components, posing serious risks. At Whipps, Inc., we engineer our gates to withstand these hazards, whether they’re open or closed. We even provide calculations to demonstrate that our products exceed the safety and durability requirements for such extreme conditions.
Built to Last with Durable Materials
Our water control gates are constructed using premium materials like 304 stainless steel, 316 stainless steel, and aluminum. These materials ensure reliable functionality in freezing waters, preventing issues like shrinkage or weld cracking. Thanks to our skilled craftsmen and rigorous standards, you can trust our equipment to deliver top-tier performance, even in harsh environments.
