Grey Circular Cast Iron Manhole Cover Decal

A 2K circular cast iron manhole cover PBR decal, captured via photogrammetry to provide realistic surface detail for urban scenes. This photogrammetry-based asset replicates a standard circular manhole cover with a heavily textured, non-slip surface pattern. The design features a concentric, functional aesthetic typical of municipal infrastructure, showing subtle signs of weathering and environmental wear along the edges. The circular geometry is clearly defined, with a robust cast iron appearance that includes legible technical markings. It is supplied with a comprehensive map set, including albedo, displacement, normal, roughness, opacity, ambient occlusion, and metalness, allowing for precise control over the material's interaction with light and depth within a 3D environment.

The download is a 28.1 MB compressed archive with the texture set at 2K with colour, normal, roughness, metalness, ambient occlusion, displacement and opacity maps, ready for any metal/roughness PBR workflow in Blender, 3ds Max, SketchUp, Unreal Engine or D5.

Professionals can apply this decal as a transparent overlay onto existing ground planes or road surfaces without disrupting the underlying material. By utilising the provided opacity map, users can blend the edges seamlessly into asphalt or concrete textures. The displacement map should be assigned to the material's height channel to capture the physical depth of the iron grating. Mapping at a 0.8m scale ensures accurate proportions, while the PBR maps work within standard metallic-roughness workflows to maintain consistent lighting responses.
