KangaTrak Boardwalk Systems
The KangaTrak boardwalk is an integrated modular system comprising piers, beams and treads. The treads connect/lock together using a tongue and groove arrangement, and special urethane ball pins connect the piers and beams. Ball pins allow for grade and direction changes. The treads include 2.5 and 5 degree taper tread edges, allowing for alignment changes.

Architectural Finish & Colour
A range of standard colours and finishes are supplied and all include a non-slip surface. Custom finishes include honed and timber look. Colour oxides are used through the product components and after 12 to 24 months of oxidation colours remain stable.
Installation
Due to KangaTrak being a precast system installation is simple and quick. Only basic setting out skills with minimal equipment and tools are needed.
Onsite power is not required, nor is in situ cutting, sawing, nailing or bolting (unless in waveuplift zones).
Span over span (top down) installation is possible avoiding site impacts. Low on-ground tiles are available, installation of Standard Pier Caps onto elevated piles is possible.
