Our taper back forms could be perfect for your site

Traditional manhole forms are not always the most appropriate choice for large scale civil infrastructure projects, which is why many civil contractors and governmental authorities are now electing to use taper back forms for their manhole projects. Our taper back forms limit the size of the access point of a manhole, allowing more space for adjacent infrastructure to be installed and reducing the amount of reinforcement required. Manhole Form Hire has a range of taper back forms for hire that can be customised to suit the requirements of almost any customer project.


Manhole Form Hire offer a variety of manhole risers to adjust the height of a manhole to match the grade of a project. All components are designed to be extracted after construction through the 600mm entry. Riser heights include 350mm, 525mm, 700mm, 900mm, 1050mm, 1200mm and 1400mm. The collar of the taper back forms allow another 300mm of height variation.
