The B6MODERNPSM Modern Bench by Superior Recreational Products is a 6-foot backless outdoor bench built for high-traffic public sites. The diamond-pattern expanded-metal seat drains water and debris without trapping leaves or trash, and the tubular steel U-frame ends double as armrests at each end of the seat. The backless design lets visitors sit facing either direction — practical for double-sided plazas, transit waiting zones, and median islands where one orientation doesn't fit the site flow.
Why this bench fits institutional sites
|
Expanded Metal Seat
Diamond-pattern expanded-metal seat surface drains rainwater and snow melt immediately. Open mesh prevents leaf accumulation, trash buildup, and standing water — the three biggest maintenance complaints on solid-top public benches.
|
Tubular Steel U-Frame
Heavy-wall tubular steel end frames form a continuous loop from floor flange to floor flange. The closed-loop geometry resists racking and vandalism better than open-leg designs, and the rounded profile doubles as a handhold or end armrest.
|
|
Surface Mount Flanges
Pre-drilled steel base flanges bolt directly to a concrete pad, sidewalk, or existing hardscape — no excavation required. Reposition or remove as site needs change. Anchor hardware sourced locally to match your slab specification.
|
Powder-Coat Finish
Multi-stage powder-coat finish on every steel component for UV, corrosion, and scratch resistance. Standard color palette available; custom-color matching quoted on request for branded campus, district, and municipal projects.

When to choose backless
Backless benches make sense in sites where visitors approach from both sides — central plaza islands, median strips between sidewalks and storefronts, double-sided transit shelters, locker rooms and aquatic facility deck areas, and sports field perimeters. They're also the standard pick for memorial and dedication benches where a clean silhouette matters. Need a back? The same Modern series is available with back support as the B6WBMODERNPSM (same length, same mount, with backrest).
