From the beginning, traffic barriers have played a crucial role in establishing traffic order and places that need barrier elements. It is common to use the traffic barrier in different areas with different functions all over the world; the colour of this product has an extraordinary brightness that is easily visible during the night and rainy days.
What is a metal traffic barrier?
Suppose you have walked through the main intersections of the city. In that case, you have undoubtedly noticed the short white barriers in the shape of an English U. These barriers have two rows of red stripes in their upper part. They usually mark the passage of a particular lane, pedestrians and prohibited parking areas on the street. These barriers are made of metal, and their thickness is two millimetres. Metal traffic barriers are available in different sizes. In many world countries, 80 cm, 90 cm and 120 cm are considered standard sizes of metal traffic barriers.
Metal traffic barriers resist impact and shocks caused by ordinary and heavy vehicles. That is why they are used for citywide use, limiting the axes of car traffic and marking prohibited parking areas. These barriers are also very resistant to weather conditions and humidity; direct sunlight, rain, and snow have no effect on their durability and efficiency.
Since electrostatic furnace paints are used to paint this category of barriers, the colour of metal traffic barriers does not fade over time. These colours are luminous so that drivers can easily recognize the presence of obstacles during the night and in dark spaces. Also, the colours of night lights can be identified well in harsh weather conditions, such as fog, rain, and snow. Due to the moral choice of the body colour of this category of traffic equipment, their use in the city is unobstructed and safe.
The importance of using traffic barriers
One of the critical topics in the road and transportation sector is the use of vertical and horizontal signs and safety equipment in the streets. They are used to guide road users better, prevent accidents and reduce injuries caused by traffic accidents. The occurrence of accidents and high traffic due to the lack of proper visibility, especially in adverse weather conditions such as rain and dust, clearly shows the need to optimize and increase the efficiency of signs and traffic barriers.
The presence of obstacles in the signboards will make their vision easier. It will lead to negative results due to improper vision. These obstacles are caused by clouding by smoke, dust, muddy and acidic rains, etc. By covering the signs or a part of them, the blocks cause disturbances in vision, recognition and understanding of the message and delay the driver’s reaction time.
Types of metal traffic barriers
Among the traffic equipment, you will see many traffic barriers. Still, in this part, we will introduce two models of them.
G-shaped metal barrier
The G-shaped metal barrier is one of the metal traffic barriers produced by ST37 steel pipe. This widely used device is used to limit the parking of cars, prevent motorcycle riders from entering the sidewalk, create a temporary wall to avoid passage, etc.
The G-shaped metal barrier is produced with a pipe diameter of 6 cm and a thickness of 2 mils. Its dimensions are considered to be one meter high and one and a half meters long by default. Of course, this is only a default size, and if the customer wants to produce his dimensions or change the size and thickness of the pipe, this is possible.
The colour coating of this traffic barrier is made of electrostatic furnace paint, which is very durable in the open air and adverse weather and sunlight. In the colour work of this product, we use shiny and bright colours so that they can be seen well by vehicle drivers in the dark and at night. This issue becomes more evident with the installation of quality night colours.
U-shaped metal barrier
The U-shaped metal barrier, which has many uses in the city today, has unique technical characteristics that we will introduce below. The U-shaped metal barrier is made of No. 6 pipe with a thickness of 2 mm. It has a high resistance to shock and impact. This size of the line and this thickness for barriers, such as the U-shaped metal barrier, is very convenient and widely used. To paint the U-shaped metal barrier, electrostatic furnace paint is used. It is very resistant to weather changes and atmospheric adversities.
