Description of Guardrail
General Description of Highway Guard Rails
A highway guardrail or a traffic crash barrier is an important part of the highway safety system. The main purpose of a guardrail is to lead a safe road for traffic participates. Guardrails can make roads safer and lessen the severity of crashes.
Components of a standard guide rail: beam, post, and spacer.
The horizontal beam of a guardrail is to redirect the vehicle back onto the roadway. and the spacer connects the beam and post, it also has a function of absorbing the collision impact.
Normally, the beams are made by roll forming, and some post are roll formed.
As a professional roll forming machine manufacturer, Brother Union Machinery has been providing roll forming solutions for the highway guardrails production.
We have produced roll forming machines for W-beam Guardrail, Thrie beam Guardrail, Sigma Post, C Post.
W-beam Guard RailBrother Union Machinery has manufactured roll forming machines to produce w-beam guardrails. For large quantity standard guard rail beams production, Compared to a press brake, a roll forming line by Brother Union Machinery is a better choice. |
Thrie-beam Guard RailA thrie-beam steel guardrail is just like a double W-Beam Guardrail formed in one single profile, it is more fit to heavier vehicles in highway traffic. Brother Union Machiney has plent experience in the 3-wave road barrier roll forming solutions. |
Sigma Post for Guardril BeamBrother Union Machiney can produce roll formers for Sigma Post in highway guardrail system. Nomally the material of te post is carbon steel with surface galvanized. We can also design custom fence post roll forming machine to produce according to customer's requirements. |
