Product overview

How a rolling barrier works

Instead of a rigid face, the barrier carries a continuous line of rollers between steel guardrails. On impact the rollers rotate, absorbing energy and steering the vehicle along the barrier.

  1. 01

    Contact

    A vehicle that leaves its path strikes the rollers instead of a flat steel face.

  2. 02

    Rotation

    The rollers spin on their vertical axes, converting part of the impact energy into rotational energy.

  3. 03

    Redirection

    The turning rollers help guide the vehicle along the barrier and back toward its intended direction of travel.

Rolling barrier configurations: MASH TL3 with grey guardrails (H 1,000 × W 700 mm, 2,100 mm) and MASH TL4 / CE H2 with green guardrails (H 1,000 × W 700 mm, 1,400 mm)
Rolling barrier configurations shown in the EKTA PLAST catalogue (H 1,000 × W 700 mm).

Key features

Built to absorb, rotate and redirect

  • Impact energy absorption

    Highly elastic rollers absorb collision energy and are designed to resist damage on impact.

  • Energy converted to rotation

    Rotating rollers turn part of the impact force into rotational energy rather than an abrupt stop.

  • Vehicle redirection

    Rollers and dual guardrails help redirect the vehicle and reduce damage to occupants and vehicles.

  • High-visibility rollers

    Distinctive roller colours make the barrier line conspicuous; powder-coat colours are available on request.

  • For accident-prone locations

    Best used where vehicles are frequently exposed to run-off and impact risk, such as sharp curves.

  • Suited to curved roads

    Designed for easy installation and maintenance on curved alignments.

Applications

Where rolling barriers are used

  • 01

    Highway curves

    Sharp bends where vehicles are more likely to leave their lane.

  • 02

    Medians

    Separating opposing traffic on divided carriageways.

  • 03

    Accident-prone sections

    Locations with a history of run-off or barrier impacts.

  • 04

    Ramps, approaches and hill roads

    Interchange loops, bridge approaches and ghat sections.

Suitability for any location is subject to the project’s road safety design and engineering review.
