Ultra-Hard Top Spill Pallet®
P4 Plus
Protected by the industry’s strongest warranty – Five years against any material or workmanship defects. Learn more…
Outdoor storage captures spills - keeps drums secure
The Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus spill pallet provides a safe, convenient and effective place to store one, two, three or four 55-gallon drums. The roll-top doors above and swing out doors below provide complete and easy access to the inside spill containment area.
Simply place your drums inside of the unit with your drum handling equipment or with our optional ramp. Close the doors and you are done. Your drums are protected from the elements and unauthorized access (the unit can be locked) and your property is protected from spills or leaks.
Product Highlights
- Unique dual closure offers significant ergonomic and convenience benefits - drums are easily accessed from either side.
- Roll-top covers can be easily lifted from waist height to access drum tops - no need to reach near ground level.
- Low profile (8 3/4") containment pallet positions drum tops at a safe, convenient level to pour wastes into funnels or to use drum pumps.
- Forkliftable, lockable, all-polyethylene construction will not rust or corrode.
- UV inhibitor in polyethylene (LLDPE) resin resists degrading effects of sunlight, adding years to outdoor service life.
- Front doors swing wide allowing access to drums pre-loaded on wooden pallets.
- Optional polyethylene (LLDPE) ramp (p/n 0676) provides convenient drum handling - stores inside containment unit when not in use.
Constructed with the "Cross of Life” Design
Innovative “Cross of Life” design protects the pallet’s structural integrity during heavy loads over time. As more weight is applied to the top of the pallet, the Cross of Life design draws the all-polyethylene sides towards the center instead of allowing them to sag outwards. Learn more…

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are the dimensions of the forklift pockets?
-
Can I move hard tops with drums inside?
No, we do not recommend moving loaded hard tops.
-
Is there access to the drums from both sides of the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus?
Yes, the dual closure system (roll top door and swing outdoors) is on both sides of the unit to provide complete access to all drums stored inside.
-
Does the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus come with a ramp?
It does not come with a ramp, but there is one available as an option (Part# 0676).
-
Is the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus combustible? Will it burn or melt?
The Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus is made of polyethylene (LLDPE) so in the event of a fire the unit will melt. It is not intended to be used in place of a safety cabinet.
-
Is the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus waterproof?
No, the spill pallet is not completely waterproof. It is more accurately described as weatherproof. In other words, in standard weather conditions, your drums and/or containers should be protected and water gathering in the pallets is not a concern. However, during very gusty conditions or very heavy rainfall, some water may get into the unit. It is good practice to inspect the interior of the hard top after any severe weather.
-
What type of drain is used for these pallets?
The standard drain is a threaded hole in the sidewall with a ¾” polyethylene plug with NPT threads installed.
-
Can the ramp fit in the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus while not in use? (with 4 drums in there)
Yes, there is enough room inside of the hard top for four drums and the ramp.
-
What are the inside dimensions of the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus?
At its peak (the top is sloped) the height is 62”, the inside width is 52”, and inside length is 52”.
-
How many Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus units can I ship as an LTL shipment?
You can ship up to two hard tops and still remain within most trucking companies’ LTL maximums.
-
How many Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus units will fit in a truck?
A dedicated truckload can hold nine (9) Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus units.
-
How does the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus ship? Is any assembly required?
The Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus ships completely assembled and ready to go upon arrival. However, we can ship a disassembled unit to reduce shipping space. Please contact us for more information on this option.
-
Is the Ultra-Hard Top P4 Plus forkliftable?
Yes, the hard top is forkliftable from both the front and back of the unit.
-
How long can I expect my UltraTech polyethylene (PE) spill containment product to last outdoors?
UltraTech’s general response to this question is at least ten (10) years. You can expect longer, but the actual life is dependent on several factors. UltraTech has been making outdoor spill containment products since 1993. We have a good sense of realistic life expectancy based on all those years of experience. UltraTech uses the highest-rated UV package in the resin formulation it uses to create the longest outdoor life available for a PE product
-
What are the factors that affect the life of a PE spill containment product outdoors?
The most important environmental factors are ultraviolet exposure and chemical exposure. In the absence of chemical compatibility concerns (determined by the UltraTech compatibility chart for PE products), the next most important factor for outdoor, polyethylene spill containment products will be ultraviolet irradiation (UV) exposure. The most important factors with reference to UV are thickness, UV Inhibitor (UVI) content, and pigment color, type, and concentration. Ultraviolet irradiation exposure causes molecular structure and bond changes that result in the embrittlement of PE. Very thin PE can become brittle and fracture in less than a year (think contractor’s PE Visqueen sheeting). Thicker parts take longer to break down. The addition of UV Inhibitors to the PE allows it to sustain more UV exposure without breaking down. Darker pigments, inorganic pigments, and higher concentrations of pigments also individually and collectively will give PE a longer life before appreciable UV damage occurs.
-
What is the longest life of an outdoor spill containment product you have seen?
There is an outdoor spill containment product that has been in use in northeast Florida since 1986 and is still in active use today. UltraTech suggests its Ultra-Track Pans, used for outdoor railroad track spill containment, have a minimum of a twenty-year life.
