Technical Inquiry: Q&A
Question
"Do polymer-based column protectors provide sufficient kinetic energy absorption for high-velocity MHE transit zones in Ankeny, IA?"
Dominic Cruz Director of Pallet Racking Sales
Polymer deflectors mitigate minor impacts through elastic deformation. However, in high-velocity or high-mass transit corridors, heavy-duty floor-anchored steel guards (V-nose or wrap-around) are structurally required to isolate the upright columns from catastrophic kinetic energy transfer.
Sourcing Heavy-Duty Accessories
Every facility has unique traffic flow and safety requirements, especially in fast-paced zones like Ankeny. We bring decades of experience navigating these exact challenges across IA. Give us a call, and we will walk you through the easiest way to secure your steel.
