About this model

A round cast-iron manhole cover set flush into a square frame, ready to drop into a road or sidewalk. The raised diamond pattern is real geometry rather than a flat texture, so it catches light and shadow properly even at low camera angles. A plain rim and a smooth center boss break up the pattern, and two lifting pockets show where the cover is pried open. The dark iron is polished on the high points where tires have worn it, while road dust gathers in the grooves and patches of light rust creep in at the edges. Without lettering, it suits any country. Use it on streets, in alleys, at construction sites or as the entrance to a sewer level. It is one of the ground details of the Urban Street Kit. Tip: rotate each copy randomly so repeated covers along a road do not look identical.

Good for

  • Road surface detail in a city
  • Entrance to a sewer level
  • Alley or construction site ground
  • Racing game street dressing

Engine import notes

Unity GLB · FBX

Import the GLB with the glTFast package or use the FBX. 1 m in the file = 1 Unity unit.

Unreal Engine FBX

Use the FBX. The model is built in metres. Unreal works in centimetres and converts on import, so it arrives at real size (0.05 m = 5 cm).

Godot 4 GLB · FBX

Drag the GLB into the FileSystem dock. Godot 4 imports it directly, with materials. The FBX works too (Godot 4.3+ imports it natively).

Blender BLEND · GLB

Open the .blend directly, or import the GLB via File › Import › glTF 2.0.

Use it in: UnityUnrealGodotBlender
