Made from scratch-resistant, impact-modified polypropylene, the GuardRite Polymer Safety Barrier can bend and absorb collisions with little or no damage to floors, material handling equipment or the barriers themselves. These low-maintenance, fixed-tube barriers are durable; they prevent costs and downtime related to the replacement of traditional barriers due to damage or rust resulting from impacts.
The GuardRite Polymer Safety Barrier comes in five models to accommodate specific applications to provide pedestrian, equipment, and product safety by clearly defining work areas, walkways, and storage areas. Light duty models are used for pedestrian traffic and are 48 in. (122 cm) tall, in compliance with OSHA’s Walking Working Surfaces standard. Heavy-duty models are used to define and defend shared spaces between workers, fork trucks, and other heavy machinery.
Allowing for a variety of configurations, it is an easy-to-install modular system. The barriers utilize black polymer 8 in. (20.3 cm) diameter posts to connect highly visible yellow polymer rails that come in 8 in. (20.3 cm), 6 in. (15.2 cm), and 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameters. Barrier rails are 8 ft (2.4 m) long but can be customized to match any facility needs.
