Made from scratch-resistant, impact-modified polypropylene, the GuardRite Polymer Safety Barrier can bend and absorb collisions with little or no damage to floors, material handling equipment or the barriers themselves. These low-maintenance, fixed-tube barriers are durable; they prevent costs and downtime related to the replacement of traditional barriers due to damage or rust resulting from impacts.
The GuardRite Polymer Safety Barrier comes in five models to accommodate specific applications to provide pedestrian, equipment, and product safety by clearly defining work areas, walkways, and storage areas. Light duty models are used for pedestrian traffic and are 48 in. (122 cm) tall, in compliance with OSHA’s Walking Working Surfaces standard. Heavy-duty models are used to define and defend shared spaces between workers, fork trucks, and other heavy machinery.
Allowing for a variety of configurations, it is an easy-to-install modular system. The barriers utilize black polymer 8 in. (20.3 cm) diameter posts to connect highly visible yellow polymer rails that come in 8 in. (20.3 cm), 6 in. (15.2 cm), and 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameters. Barrier rails are 8 ft (2.4 m) long but can be customized to match any facility needs.
GuardRite Polymer LD
- The GuardRite Polymer LD barrier consists of two 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameter rails designed to absorb small, light duty impacts from carts and pallet jacks. This makes it a cost-effective solution to keep people safely separated from dangerous areas.
GuardRite Polymer HD
- The GuardRite Polymer HD barrier consists of one 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameter rail, one 6 in. (15.2 cm) diameter rail, and one 6 in. (15.2 cm) diameter reinforced rail and is designed for high traffic areas with fork trucks. This barrier separates pedestrians from material handling equipment and help define and protect work zones.
GuardRite Polymer HD Plus
- The GuardRite Polymer HD Plus barrier consists of one 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameter rail, one reinforced 6 in. (15.2 cm) diameter rail, and one 12 in. (30.5 cm) Plus bottom rail assembly at ground level and offers heavy duty protection for areas where pallet pass-through or fork tine protrusion is a concern.
GuardRite Polymer HDXL
- At a height of 120 in. (305 cm) tall and consisting of five 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameter rails, one 6 in. (15.2 cm) diameter rail, and one reinforced 6 in. (15.2 cm) diameter rail, the GuardRite Polymer HDXL barrier is designed to reduce the risk of stacked or tall materials tipping into storage areas, work zones or walkways.
GuardRite Polymer HDXL Plus
- At a height of 120 in. (305 cm) tall, the GuardRite Polymer HDXL Plus barrier consists of five 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameter rails, one reinforced 6 in. (15.2 cm) diameter rail, and one 12 in. (30.5 cm) Plus bottom rail assembly at ground level. It is purpose-built to prevent stacked or tall materials from tipping and offers seamless protection of sensitive equipment, product, and building infrastructure from fork tine protrusion.
