43 X 72 Sentry Cable Barrier [Price for 4]

Benefits of The Sentry Cable Barrier

Sentry Water-Cable Barrier allows for the creation of a free-standing continuous longitudinal water-cable barrier. Each Sentry wall section has four integrally molded corrosion-resistant steel cables and eight (8) bushings connecting the barrier sections to prevent vehicle breaching. Weighing 2,000 lbs (907 kg) when filled, the Sentry Water-Cable Barrier softly absorbs the energy of the impacting vehicle progressively using water, and the steel cables to capture the vehicle without redirection, avoiding a secondary incident.

• Four integrally molded corrosion-resistant steel cables prevent the impacting vehicle from breaching the Sentry Water-Cable Barrier
• Stacking lugs on the top and bottom of the Sentry makes storage and transport easy
• 8 inch (20.32 cm) diameter fill hole allows for quick filling
• Tested and accepted for all TL-2 & TL-3 lightweight 1,807 lbs (820 kg) and heavy 4,409 lbs (2,000 kg) vehicle impacts at 45 mph (70 kph) and 62.5 mph (100 kph)
• Forklift through holes and pallet jack slots make movement and placement quick and easy
• Interlocking knuckle design allows for a positive connection between sentry barriers while maintaining up to a 15 degree rotation between sections
• Tamper resistant drain plug with course buttress thread, screws in or out in only 1.5 turns
• Standard colors are orange/red or white - additional colors available upon request (typically bulk quantities needed for custom colors)
