Armco barriers and tube clamp posts are essential safety components commonly used in off-road sites such as warehouses, delivery bays, and car parks. Their primary function is to provide a robust protective solution that helps prevent accidental damage to building structures, valuable stock, and pedestrians. Instead of repairing costly structural walls, replacing a damaged section of a crash barrier is far more economical and efficient, making Armco barriers a cost-effective safety investment.
The 760mm bolt-down RSJ post comes equipped with a size 7 or size 8 tube clamp 1m extension, meaning there is no need for additional attachments. This feature simplifies installation, reducing the time and effort required to set up a secure safety system. These posts are particularly useful in locations where strong protection is necessary alongside pedestrian walkways, such as in car parks and warehouses. Their versatility makes them an ideal solution for environments where both vehicle and foot traffic coexist, ensuring a safer working area.
One of the standout features of the RSJ post is its unique profile, which allows for installation flat against walls or surfaces. This design feature is particularly beneficial for sites with limited space, as it ensures maximum efficiency without unnecessary obstructions. Additionally, the bolt-down design eliminates the need for excavation of existing concrete surfaces. This makes RSJ posts a perfect choice for areas where road surfaces are already coated in concrete or tarmac, avoiding disruptive and costly groundworks.
To enhance durability and longevity, Armco RSJ posts are coated with a hot-dip galvanised finish. This protective coating serves as a strong barrier against weathering and rust, ensuring that the steel remains structurally sound even when exposed to harsh environmental conditions. The galvanisation process significantly extends the lifespan of the posts, making them a long-term investment for safety infrastructure.
For locations that require enhanced visibility, these posts can also be powder-coated in a high-visibility yellow finish. This additional layer not only provides further protection against corrosion but also improves safety by ensuring that the barriers are easily noticeable. The high-visibility coating is particularly beneficial in environments where lighting conditions may be poor, helping to reduce the risk of collisions and ensuring that both drivers and pedestrians can clearly identify safety barriers.
Armco barriers and tube clamp posts are widely used across various industries due to their adaptability and resilience. In warehouse settings, they help protect racking systems, machinery, and personnel from forklift or vehicle collisions. In car parks, they provide a strong physical barrier that prevents accidental vehicle damage to buildings and pedestrian pathways. The combination of Armco barriers with tube clamp extensions also makes them an excellent choice for locations where a handrail is required in conjunction with crash protection, further improving workplace safety.
