1.6m Galvanised Effective Armco Barrier Beam – 3mm Thick

Armco barrier beam is to protect vehicles from running off the road or colliding with hazards. It is also ideal for car park installations, or for use in warehouses to protect racking from forklifts. It is made of galvanised steel and designed to absorb the impact of a vehicle in the event of a crash, preventing the vehicle from crossing into oncoming traffic or off the roadway.

1.6m (or 1600mm) is a common length. These beams are typically installed end-to-end to form a continuous barrier, with each beam being bolted to posts or anchored directly into the ground.

Armco barrier beams are commonly used on highways, bridges, and other roadways where a physical barrier is needed to protect drivers and passengers from hazards. They are designed to be highly visible, durable, and long-lasting, even in harsh weather conditions.

Features:

1. Length: A 1.6m Armco barrier beam is typically 1.6 meters long.
2. Material: The beam is made of high-strength steel that is designed to withstand impacts from vehicles.
3. Profile: The beam has a w-beam profile, which means it is shaped like a “W” when viewed from the end.
4. Galvanized: The beam is typically hot-dip galvanized to provide protection against corrosion and rust.
5. Lightweight: Despite being made of steel, Armco barrier beams are relatively lightweight, which makes them easy to transport and install.
6. Modular design: The beams are designed to be modular, so they can be easily connected together to form a continuous barrier.
