For more exposed locations and a more rugged construction using the most modern maintenance free materials. Ideally suited as fry holding cages or for mobile harvest cages. This cage utilises the same compression moulded base unit as all the other PE cages that Kames manufactures, but the secret of it’s strength lies in the 6-bar moulded swept bends which are used to make the corners. Unlike most other square cages on the market which utilise fabricated corners, our cage is able to withstand substantial wave climates.
The cage can be supplied with two or three base pipes and with full peripheral PE decking Or work stations. Each handrail upright carries a heavy duty cleat to aid net working.

Sizes
Any cage size can be made up to a maximum of 10m x 10m. The cage can be made as a single unit or as a module of two or more units. The more units in the module, the more cost effective they become!
Supply
This cage has to be constructed on site and so all materials will be supplied in pack form with a Kames engineer on site to help assemble using specialised equipment.
Material Specification
All the components are made from PE80 a medium / high density virgin Polyethylene. The standard colour is black but for hot climates a light grey or yellow handrail is supplied. PE80 has been used for over 25 years to build cages and proven an extremely resilient material with a very long working life. We have some cages which are over 10 years old and still going strong!
- Base Pipes - 250mm diameter SDR 17.6 (6 bar) 15mm wall thickness. Resists impact and kinking.
- Collar Units - Solid compression moulded. Unlike rotational moulding, this gives a unit with no hollows or air pockets in it.
- Handrail Supports - 110mm diameter SDR 11 (10 bar) 11mm wall thickness.
