Track & Field Equipment

The Gill Steeplechase Water Jump Barrier Seal (Aluminum, SP configuration) is built for installations that call for a special profile at the water jump perimeter. Like the standard seal, it keeps the steeplechase water jump pit watertight, holding consistent depth for a safe, regulation competition surface for distance runners. The SP designation indicates a specialized configuration, so confirm compatibility with your specific water jump form before ordering.

Key features & specs:

• Aluminum construction for corrosion resistance and long service life
• SP (special-profile) configuration for non-standard water jump installations
• Seals the pit perimeter to maintain proper water depth
• Engineered for permanent outdoor track facilities
• Withstands repeated freeze-thaw cycles and heavy meet use

Coach's tip: Contact ST1 Sports with your water jump form model to verify the SP profile matches your installation. Inspect and clear the seal each season, and drain the pit before winter to protect the aluminum through freeze-thaw cycles.

The Gill Steeplechase Water Jump Barrier Seal is constructed from aluminum and designed for permanent installation to keep the water jump pit watertight between competitions. Fitted at the perimeter of the steeplechase water jump, the seal stops water from seeping out so the pit holds its proper depth for a consistent, safe competition surface. It is a foundational component of any regulation steeplechase course that plans to hold water reliably from meet to meet.

Key features & specs:

• Aluminum construction for lasting corrosion resistance
• Designed for permanent installation at the water jump perimeter
• Seals the pit to maintain proper, consistent water depth
• Built to withstand years of outdoor use and freeze-thaw cycles
• Suited to high school and collegiate steeplechase facilities

Coach's tip: Inspect the seal at the start of each outdoor season for gaps or debris, and clear the perimeter before filling. Draining the pit for winter helps the aluminum and seal survive repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

The Gill Weather Cover for the 66517 Pole Vault Pit is cut to fit the Gill 66517 model precisely, shielding your landing system from sun, rain, and debris during storage between competitions and throughout the off-season.
