Description

RamShield® Low Deflection, reducing the Distance Required to Shield Roadside Hazards.
RamShield® Low Deflection combines the sectional strength of C-posts with w-beam to reduces the clearance required between barrier and hazard, an important design consideration for installation on narrow formations.
RamShield® Low Deflection achieves a controlled redirection of errant vehicles by regulating the force to release the rail throughout the impact zone, limiting dynamic deflection and to allow the C-post to collapse without tripping the vehicle.
