GuardRite® Polymer HD & HD Plus Safety Barriers
The GuardRite Polymer HD is a high-impact industrial safety barrier that absorbs collisions of up to 30,000 lbs. at 3 mph. These OSHA-compliant forklift safety barriers help protect assets using flexible, sturdy polymer rails.
+ Overview Are you concerned your barrier won't hold up to heavy impacts?
Using three flexible rails, GuardRite Polymer HD and HD Plus industrial polymer safety barriers give you heavy-duty protection for employees, equipment and products in exposed, high-traffic areas where heavy machinery is present.
- Flexible impact protection: Absorbs collisions and returns to its original shape without damage.
- Cost-effective: Its low-maintenance, long-lasting design reduces overall facility costs and downtime associated with repair or replacement of traditional barriers.
- Durability: Stops the same impact levels as steel counterparts without scratches or dents.
+ Safety Want to maintain operational efficiency and productivity while improving OSHA compliance?
Get lasting performance that helps keep workers safe without demanding constant upkeep or replacement parts.
- OSHA-compliant design: Helps facilities meet guardrail requirements under OSHA's 1910.29 Walking Working Surfaces standard.
- Highly visible: Safety yellow polymer rails help raise the yellow line, making these safety barriers stand out in busy, high-traffic environments.
- Lower total cost of ownership: Low-maintenance polymer is easy to install and doesn't rust, fade or scratch like traditional steel barriers.
- PLUS rail assembly: The GuardRite HD Plus model offers additional ground-level protection from dangerous tines and other unseen hazards to help prevent worker injuries or damage to product and equipment on the other side.
