TrafFix Unveils Water Cable Barrier
TrafFix Devices has unveiled an ideal solution for professionals managing construction, infrastructure, event safety, and emergency sites, the Water Cable Barrier.
 |
Engineered to meet demanding requirements in highway and work zone environments, this system elevates both protection and deployment efficiency for contractors and agencies alike.
As the world's first Longitudinal Barrier to be MASH Tested, Passed, and Eligible at TL-1 31 mph (50 km/hr) and TL-2 43.5 mph (70 km/hr) levels with or without chain link fence paneling, the Water Cable Barrier sets a new standard for safety performance.
The internal galvanized steel cable system connects each barrier segment, forming a continuous protective line that effectively intercepts and restrains vehicles during an impact. Unlike standard channelizing devices, which may permit vehicles to break through at high speeds, the Water Cable Barrier’s cable-linked design is engineered to keep vehicles from intruding into work zones.
Built with premium polyethylene and UV stabilization, the barrier resists fading, cracking, and breakage, ensuring reliable field performance and long service life through tough weather and repeated use. A unique double-wall knuckle safeguards hinge points, minimizing breakage and downtime. Field crews benefit from an oversized fill hole and secure twist-lock cap for faster filling and secure water retention, while a tamper-resistant drain plug with coarse, buttress threading streamlines maintenance and eliminates cross-threading issues.
Deployment efficiency is further enhanced by forklift and pallet jack slots for rapid repositioning, plus a hinged design that allows up to 30 degrees of pivot between sections. Each barrier comes standard with a galvanized steel connection pin, allowing sections to be securely linked into a continuous protective wall. The newly available corner piece enables versatile 90-degree angles for custom site layouts and boundary configurations. Barriers stack for compact transport and storage, reducing logistical costs, with each unit featuring a steel connection pin for secure linking on busy job sites.
