Rectangular Guards
Rectangular flanged guards cover a variety of drives, sheaves, sprockets and other moving machine parts.
Rectangular flanged machine guards can also be used as drip trays.
The backplate covers the back of the guard, which can be attached to guards through holes or brackets made through the flange.
If standard sized guards do not fit machinery, several guards may be re-sized to make a longer or shorter guard.
Note: MGC normal manufacturing policy does not include cutting holes for shafts or making brackets for mounting. This can be done on special orders.

Why use a plastic machine guard or cover?
In addition to being lightweight and durable, there are many plastic machine guard advantages.
How do we set up an account?
We need to see three good credit references. You can speed up the process by sending credit references with or before an initial order. Our standard terms are net 30 days upon approval of credit references. We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover cards.
What kind of prints or drawings do you need to tool a custom part?
