QCIT Cable Barrier- Best Choice for Open Scenic Area

The cable barrier, also known as cable guardrail, wire rope safety barrier, is a flexible guard railing system to provide good safe guard in open areas. This barrier system composed with chiefly hot dipped galvanized steel wire strands, steel posts and terminals offering excellent rust resisting and corrosion resisting property.
This type of wire rope safety barrier is a kind of highway fence keeping vehicles within the limits of correct way. The wire cable barrier is made with three,four, five or six high tensile steel wire ropes, firmly mounted on the steel post at certain spacing to form a flexible guard barrier. The more number of the wire cables, the much strength the barrier offers.Compare to other steel highway guardrail, this one is relatively cheaper and easy to install with a high effectiveness of redirection of errant vehicles when it is installed in a right way.


 

QCIT Cable Barrier Advantages

◆Low cost, Easy to install and repair
◆Less impact on accident car and the persons inside
◆Cable tension and Post space can be adjusted
◆Prevent vehicles from running off the road effectively
◆Absorb most sudden impact energy during collision
◆Can be reused after accident by somehow repairing
◆Anti-rust, anti-corrosion and anti-aging
◆Good looking for open scenic spots



Three Major Factors on Efficiency of QCIT Cable Barriers
1. Cable numbers: Three of four cables are commonly used. Five or six layer wire cables are used for reinforced guard railings.
2. Space distance: The barrier post often installed with spacing from 6.3 to 32.6 ft. The longer spacing normally means the higher deflection distance.
3. Tension: Cables are fixed on the post and tightened to specific tension in accordance with the local temperature and environment. After tension, the reflection will be reduces and the ability to preventing vehicles from skidding off the road can be enhanced. Normally the tensions values range approximately from 2,000lb to 9,000lb.
Cable Rope guardrail is the main representative form of flexible guardrail. It is a structure composed of several ropes that exert initial tension and are fixed on the column. It mainly relies on the tensile stress of the rope to resist the collision of vehicles and absorb the collision ability.
