The REACT 350 Wide Systems are redirective, non-gating crash cushion
that meets NCHRP 350, Test Level 3. They features “smart plastic”
cylinders made of high molecular weight, high-density polyethylene
(HMW/HDPE) plastic that are arranged to shield rigid hazards with
three system widths of 1.525 m (60”), 2.440 m (96”)
and 2.050 m (120”). When impacted within the design capacity
specified in NCHRP 350, the cylinders typically regain up to 90%
of their original shape
and capacity without maintenance or repair of major components.
Smart Plastic Cylinders
The
React 350® Wide 60/90/120 in. Crash Cushion System features
"smart plastic" cylinders made of high-molecular weight,
high-density polyethylene (HMW/HDPE) plastic that is arranged to
shield rigid roadway hazards with widths up to 3050 mm (120 in).
NCHRP 350
-
Non-gating, redirective crash cushion system
- Performs effectively with design speeds up to 100 km/h (62 mph)
- Meets TL-3 (100 km/h / 62 mph)
Redirective Capability
During side angle impacts up to 20°, an errant vehicle weighing
between 820 kg (1800 lbs) and 2000 kg (4400 lbs) is redirected back
into the original traffic flow as a result of energy-absorbing cylinders
with internal struts, combined with rail guides.
Crashworthy
Crashworthy at speeds up to 100 km/h (62 mph) and at angles as high
as 20°, when impacted by vehicles weighing up to 2000 kg (4400
lbs).
Easy Maintenance
Design impacts would require no major component replacement. Reusability
is up to 99% after most design impacts.
Extreme Efficiency
The
REACT 350® crash cushion system will continue to perform after
multiple design impacts, typically regaining up to 90% of its original
shape and capacity without maintenance or repair of major components
after most design impacts.
