Highway Guardrails Types On The Market

 Two kinds of highway guardrail in the market

There are two common types of highway guardrails, one is high-speed guardrail board (and wave guardrail), and the other is cable guardrail (and wire rope guardrail). The cable guardrail is the main representative form of the flexible guardrail. It mainly relies on the tensile stress of the cable to resist the collision of the vehicle and absorb the collision energy. When the vehicle collides, the cable works within the elastic range to prevent the runaway vehicle from rushing out of the high speed or into the reverse lane. Greater accidents and losses.

The high-speed guardrail board is a semi-steel anti-collision guardrail, which is mainly a continuous structure where corrugated steel guardrail boards are spliced together and supported by the main column. It uses the deformation of the soil foundation, columns, and beams to absorb the collision energy, and force the out-of-control vehicles to change direction and return to the normal driving direction to prevent the vehicles from rushing out of the road, so as to protect the vehicles and passengers and reduce the damage caused by accidents.  Looking for high speed guardrail forming machine?
