The QUADGUARD® CRASH CUSHION is designed to shield hazards from 610mm to 3200mm wide, and for speeds from 40km/h to 120km/h. In addition, each QuadGuard® crash cushion system consists of crushable, energy-absorbing cartridges surrounded by a framework of exclusive steel Quad-Beam™ panels. Furthermore, the QuadGuard® System has successfully passed the complete NCHRP 350 Test Level 2 & 3 test matrix. Higher speed units are also available.
During head-on impacts, the QuadGuard® System’s telescope goes rearwards and progressively crushes the cartridges to absorb the energy of impact. When impacted from the side, the QuadGuard® System safely redirects the errant vehicle back toward its original path without gating. In addition, the fully-tested transition panels are available to all common guard rail profiles, concrete structures and temporary steel barriers.
