Description Bollard Ø 70 x 70 mm | Foldable | Triangular Lock + Half Cylinder
Comprehensive Analysis and Application Areas: Absperrpfosten Ø 70x70 mm, umlegbar Dreikant+Halbzylinder, Halbzylinderschloß (gleichschliessend)
The significance of barrier technology in contemporary urban planning, industrial zones, and private properties cannot be overstated. As cities expand and the complexity of urban environments increases, the need for effective traffic management and safety measures becomes paramount. The Absperrpfosten Ø 70x70 mm serves as a critical component in this landscape, providing essential functionality for securing traffic routes, emergency access paths for fire services, and facilitating temporary closures. These barriers not only delineate spaces but also play a vital role in liability prevention by clearly marking restricted areas and ensuring that unauthorized access is effectively controlled.
In urban settings where pedestrian safety is a priority, the visibility and structural integrity of barriers like the Absperrpfosten are crucial. They must withstand various environmental conditions while maintaining their operational effectiveness. The design of this barrier allows for quick deployment and retraction, adapting to changing requirements without compromising safety standards. Furthermore, compliance with relevant safety regulations ensures that these barriers contribute to overall public safety while minimizing potential liabilities associated with accidents or unauthorized access.
Technical Key Features and Structural Advantages
- Material: Constructed from high-quality steel that is hot-dip galvanized to provide superior corrosion resistance; optional powder coating available in reflective white/red for enhanced visibility.
- Dimensions: Measuring 70x70 mm with a total height of 1000 mm above ground level ensures optimal visibility and structural stability.
- Closure Mechanism: Features a three-pronged lock conforming to standard 3223 alongside a half-cylinder lock (30/10), ensuring robust security against tampering.
- Design Variants: Available as foldable with a base plate (150x100 mm) for bolting down or removable/ foldable including a ground sleeve measuring 400 mm in length for versatile installation options.
- Accessories: Requires a separate triangular key (Order No. INC-6.001) for operation; an additional anchor plate for concrete embedding (Order No. INC-8.011) can be ordered if necessary.
This construction facilitates easy handling while ensuring necessary safety measures are upheld on roadways or private properties. The foldable design simplifies both usage and storage of the barrier while the robust steel construction guarantees high load-bearing capacity under various conditions.
Material Quality, Corrosion Protection, and Durability
The steel used in the Absperrpfosten is hot-dip galvanized to protect against corrosion effectively, significantly enhancing its longevity even when exposed to harsh environmental conditions. The optional powder coating not only adds aesthetic value but also improves visibility during low-light situations or adverse weather conditions—critical factors in urban environments where clear sightlines are essential for safety.
The total height of 1000 mm above ground level is strategically designed to ensure maximum signal effect for road users while providing adequate ground stability against potential frost heave during colder months. This height complies with safety regulations that dictate visibility standards for traffic control devices. Additionally, the chemical resistance of the coating ensures that the barrier maintains its integrity over time despite exposure to various pollutants commonly found in urban settings.
Installation, Maintenance, and FAQ
The installation process for the Absperrpfosten Ø 70x70 mm recommends using an anchor plate when concrete embedding is required due to unsuitable soil conditions for screw fastening. Regular maintenance involves checking locking mechanisms and cleaning surfaces to prevent buildup that could impair functionality over time.
Frequently Asked Questions:
- Q: Can the barrier be used without a ground sleeve?
A: Yes, it can be installed either with a base plate bolted down or without a ground sleeve depending on site requirements.
- Q: Is the powder coating resistant to weather?
A: Yes, it provides excellent protection against weather elements ensuring long-lasting colour retention.
- Q: Do I need special tools for installation?
A: A triangular key is required for operation; this must be ordered separately as it is not included with the product.
