Expert Insights

The Connecting Dike is the tallest floor-level containment dike at 4.5 inches, providing maximum spill volume capacity per linear foot. The 5-foot sections use dovetail connecting ends rather than the quick-connect system found on the Interlocking and Connectable Dikes. At 16 lbs per 5-foot section, this dike is the heaviest per-foot option but justified when you need to contain larger spill volumes. Ideal for areas around tanks, pumps, or equipment where significant fluid release is possible. For lighter-duty applications, consider the Interlocking Dike (1.37 in.) or Connectable Dike (2.25 in.) instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Urethane Spill Containment Dike, Connecting, 5 ft x 4.5 in High, Green

How does this connect to other sections?

The Connecting Dike uses dovetail connecting ends that slide and lock together. This is a different connection system from the Connectable Dike quick-connect ends.

Can I mix this with Connectable Dike sections?

No. The Connecting Dike uses dovetail ends and is not compatible with the quick-connect ends on the Connectable Dike (AMR8014S) or Interlocking Dike (ASPB10CS).

Why choose a 4.5-inch dike over a shorter one?

The 4.5-inch height contains significantly more spill volume per linear foot than the 1.37-inch or 2.25-inch dikes. Choose this for areas where large fluid releases are possible.

Is adhesive required?

No. The flexible polyurethane creates a seal against smooth floors through its own weight and conformability without adhesive or fasteners.

What is the difference between a spill dike and a berm?

Spill dikes are portable, modular barrier sections that you arrange in any configuration to contain spills on flat surfaces. Berms are complete enclosed containment systems with an integrated floor and walls. Use dikes for quick perimeter containment on existing floors; use berms when you need a complete containment basin including the floor.
