Impact Flexible Bollard – 160mm Self-Recovering Safety Post

Description

The Impact Flexible Bollard is a Φ160 polymer post that marks and defends defined areas — gates, entrances, machine zones, loading points — without the rigidity of steel tubes. Available in 600mm, 750mm, 1000mm and 1200mm heights, it can be specified to suit anything from a low equipment boundary to a clearly visible gate marker. Molded from imported high-molecular polymer in yellow and black, the post absorbs the energy of a collision, bends, and springs back to its original shape, so a reversing vehicle or pallet truck leaves a scuff rather than a bent post or a repair job. The base is powder coated and the anchor bolts finish with SS304 cap nuts, making the bollard a rust-free choice for indoor plants, outdoor yards and cold stores alike.

Key Features

Point protection where it matters

• – A single Φ160 post isolates gates, doorways, machine corners and service areas, giving layout designers a flexible alternative to fencing or kerbs.

Self-recovering polymer body

• – The bollard flexes on impact and returns to its original form, tolerating multiple hits from vehicles, trolleys and pallet trucks without permanent deformation.

Four standard heights

• – 600mm, 750mm, 1000mm and 1200mm options let you match visibility and protection level to each location, with customized heights on request.

Weather and chemical resistant

• – UV resistance tested to ISO 4892-3, with a polymer body that does not corrode, so the post performs outdoors and in cold or humid plants.

Corrosion-resistant fixing system

• – Exposed metal is black powder coated and tested to 500 hours of neutral salt spray; dacromet anchor bolts are tested to 1,000 hours and closed with SS304 cap nuts.

Simple, modular installation

• – Each post fixes to the concrete floor with an inverted-cone chemical anchor, so new protection points can be added one at a time as operations change.

Specifications

Materials & Finish

Bollard body:

• Imported polymer plastic with strong weather and chemical resistance; the natural-color material has low chemical activity, so the post does not age or corrode.

Base:

• Metal and rubber components combined in assembly; exposed metal is black powder coated and withstands 500 hours of neutral salt spray without rust.

Ground connection:

• An inverted-cone chemical anchor bolt with dacromet coating resists 1,000 hours of neutral salt spray and is finished with an SS304 cap nut for a secure, tidy fixing.

Assembly & Installation

Each bollard is positioned on the traffic plan, fixed to the concrete floor with an inverted-cone chemical anchor bolt and finished with an SS304 cap nut — no excavation, no welding and no on-site painting. Because posts are independent, protection points can be installed one at a time to suit phased projects, and they can be added, relocated or removed as gates, machines or storage layouts change. The polymer body needs no attention after vehicle contact, and the powder-coated base keeps its appearance in wash-down and outdoor areas.

Applications

Factory gates and entrances

• – Marks gate openings and protects posts, doors and control panels from vehicle contact.

Isolation zones

• – Defines restricted, reserved or pedestrian-only areas without building a permanent barrier.

Machine and equipment corners

• – Places a flexible post at the vulnerable corner of a machine, press or conveyor line.

Loading docks and doors

• – Protects door frames, levellers and dock hardware at reversing points.

Parking areas and driveways

• – Guides vehicles and shields column bases, kiosks and building corners.

Cold storage and cleanrooms

• – A non-corroding post for low-temperature rooms and hygienically controlled areas.

Public and commercial buildings

• – Delineates entrances, service yards and equipment zones in a clear yellow-black standard.

FAQ

Q: What is an impact flexible bollard used for? A: It is a Φ160 polymer post used to protect and define independent areas — gates, entrances, machine corners, loading points and restricted zones. It marks the boundary visibly and absorbs vehicle contact instead of passing the impact on to the building or equipment.

Q: Which height should I choose? A: Standard options are 600mm, 750mm, 1000mm and 1200mm. Lower posts suit equipment boundaries and tight spaces, while taller posts give greater visibility for gates, driveways and vehicle routes. Customized heights are available.

Q: Should I use flexible bollards or a flexible guardrail? A: Bollards protect points and short sections, such as gate posts, machine corners and doorways. Guardrails protect continuous runs, such as aisles, walkways and rack faces. The two are often combined in the same facility.

Q: Can the bollard be installed on existing concrete? A: Yes. Each post is fixed with an inverted-cone chemical anchor bolt with a dacromet finish and closed with an SS304 cap nut, so no excavation or welding is required and posts can be added one at a time.

Q: Is the bollard certified, and does it corrode? A: The bollard is TÜV certified to meet global industry safety standards, with independent third-party test reports available on request. The polymer body does not corrode, and the powder-coated base is tested to 500 hours of neutral salt spray.
