New Gibraltar Cable Barrier Systems product offers high safety for low cost and speedy installation
7681 Gibraltar Cable Barrier Systems says that its new product offers high safety and cost efficiency for clients. Ease of installation makes the cable barrier system quick to set up and also helps lower costs.

High vehicle containment and redirective capabilities are claimed and the system has been successfully tested to the NCHRP 350 TL-3 and TL-4 requirements for use in North America.

Post spacings can be at distances of up to 9.14m (30feet) while the system can be used in applications with slopes of up to 4:1, with the latter increasing its versatility for installation purposes. The system can feature three or four strands of cable and suits use in highway median applications and its ability to redirect errant vehicles means it offers increased safety over earlier generation products.
