When to Use an 8-Inch Aluminum Trench Shield

Trench shields protect your workers from falling soil as they work in a trench. This equipment is recommended for any trench work, but it’s especially valuable for looser soils. It’s essential to use trench shields alongside shores or other structural supports. While these shields protect workers from dislodged materials, they will not prevent the trench from collapsing.

The spreader bars that connect the shields horizontally add an extra protective layer in case of collapse. These bars will prevent the shields from falling inward and create space for workers to leave the trench.
