SP Spring Steel Buffer Post
The SP post is the most popular form of spring steel post, as it can be used in either domestic or commercial vehicle areas and can be used where there is the risk of both high and low impact collisions. The SP Post can be used with our standard rails and the Open Box Beams.
Our SP post have a footprint of 300mm in the parking bay. Therefore, reducing the overall parking length by 400mm. The impact of the collision is contained within the footprint of the post due to the cushioning buffer built into the post. A base plate is used to spread the impact of the load over a wider surface area therefor avoiding damage to the substrate. Two anchor fixings are used for quick and easy installation.
The anchorage per post, 2 off, is M20 x 170mm. When the spring post system is used the deflection on impact is typically 100 -150mm. The force absorbed is 38kN approximately, this puts less stress on the anchor bolts which means less damage to the rail and saving on repairs and maintenance.
The post is ideal for multi-storey car parks, as it is able to absorb most vehicle impacts without compromising the infrastructure of the building. It also reduces risk of injury to both vehicle drivers and pedestrians. Like installation, replacement is quick and simple and cost effective as damage is contained to the affected area.
