Passive secured lightning rod poles are specially designed for traffic safety, aimed at enhancing safety during collisions and minimizing the severity of impacts. These poles are primarily used in areas with high vehicle traffic, such as roads, bridges, viaducts, and hazardous intersections. Designed according to the principles of “passive safety,” these poles are engineered to protect drivers and passengers in the event of an accident. The controlled bending or breaking of the pole upon impact helps reduce the potential harm to the passengers inside the vehicle.
Passive secured lightning rod poles are typically made from steel or aluminum alloys, and they feature a special structure that provides flexibility. In the event of a collision, the pole will either break or bend in a controlled manner, absorbing the force of the impact and mitigating the effects of the accident. Additionally, thanks to their galvanized coating, these poles are resistant to weather conditions and are durable over time. They can also be equipped with warning lamps, signal lights, or other safety equipment to enhance road safety.
These poles are manufactured in compliance with European standards and local safety regulations. Through energy absorption, they help reduce the speed of a vehicle upon impact, preventing uncontrolled skidding. Passive secured lightning rod poles can also be used in conjunction with road barriers for more effective protection.
