Guardrail barriers (also known as Armco rail) protects certain areas from cars, trucks and forklifts.

Guardrail has two configurations - a standard specfication for most uses both external and internal, and also an RTA specification which involves thicker base plates and generally heavier duty components.

Although traditionally in a single rail design, guardrail can be arranged into dual rail or even tri rail configurations.

GUARDRAIL:

Guardrail, or Crash Barrier as it is also known, is comprised of "W" shaped beams bolted to vertical posts and are primarily designed to stop out-of-control vehicles crashing through into areas they aren't meant to go.

The standard specification for industrial use is using either groundset posts or 300x300x10mm baseplates. RTA specification however, calls for heavier duty materials, such as using 300x300x20mm baseplates.
