Complete Bond Mat Kit for Hydro Excavation Trucks

The Kri-Tech  Hydro Excavation Truck Kit provides two rugged bond mats and the cable assemblies needed to create a dedicated bonding setup around compatible hydro excavation equipment.

Each 58-inch x 58-inch bond mat features high-visibility perimeter edges and an attached 10-foot cable with clamp. Separate 10-foot and 22-foot cable assemblies provide additional flexibility when connecting the mats within an approved bonding configuration.

The kit also includes a storage bag to keep the mats, cables, and clamps organized between jobs. This complete package is well suited for hydro excavation contractors, utility crews, municipalities, and industrial service teams that need a purpose-built bond mat system for field operations.

Important safety notice: Bond mats are not a substitute for proper grounding, electrical hazard assessment, utility locating, personal protective equipment, safe excavation procedures, or qualified electrical guidance. Installation and use must follow the manufacturer’s instructions, employer safety program, site requirements, and applicable regulations.

Why It Works for Range Supply Customers

Built Around Hydro Excavation Equipment

The HV-101-KT is packaged specifically for hydro excavation truck operations. The kit combines two large bond mats, attached connections, additional cable assemblies, clamps, and a storage bag in one field-ready package.

Two Large Work-Area Mats

The kit includes two 58-inch x 58-inch mats, providing defined standing surfaces that can be positioned according to the equipment configuration, manufacturer instructions, and jobsite safety plan.

High-Visibility Perimeter Edges

Visibility perimeter edges help crews identify the boundaries of each mat, particularly around large trucks, hoses, tools, and active work zones.

Multiple Cable Lengths

In addition to the cables attached to the mats, the kit includes separate 10-foot and 22-foot cable assemblies. The different cable lengths provide greater flexibility when arranging the system around compatible equipment.

Organized Jobsite Storage

The included storage bag helps keep the mats, clamps, and cable assemblies together during transportation and between uses. Organized storage can also make it easier for crews to confirm that the major kit components are present before deployment.

Setup and Use Considerations

Before deploying the HV-101-KT, crews should:

• Read and follow the current Kri-Tech instructions
• Complete the required jobsite hazard assessment
• Inspect both mats for cuts, damage, excessive wear, or contamination
• Inspect cables, clamps, and connection points
• Confirm that all required kit components are present
• Verify the correct bonding arrangement for the equipment and worksite
• Position the mats only as directed by the approved safety procedure
• Keep connections secure and protected from accidental displacement
• Remove damaged components from service
• Clean, dry, and store the kit according to manufacturer instructions

The required setup may vary according to truck configuration, site conditions, electrical hazards, employer procedures, and local requirements.

Important Safety Information

The HV-101-KT should be used only as one component of a complete, properly designed safety program.

The kit does not:

• Locate buried electrical utilities
• Confirm that a utility line is de-energized
• Eliminate step or touch potential
• Replace proper equipment grounding
• Replace electrical-rated personal protective equipment
• Replace trained spotters or qualified personnel
• Make contact with energized equipment safe
• Guarantee protection from electrical shock or electrocution

Consult the manufacturer and a qualified safety or electrical professional to determine whether the kit is suitable for the intended equipment, hazard, and jobsite.
