Traffic safety barrels, often referred to as traffic drums or construction barrels, are crucial traffic control devices utilized mainly in road construction zones and other locations where traffic patterns must be regulated.
We offer a range of barrel base options to cater to our customers’ specific needs and budgets. Our standard built-in plastic bases can be filled with up to 50 lbs. of sand for added stability. For even greater support, you can select a tire-ring base or one made from thicker, more durable rubber. Regardless of the base you choose, you can opt for one of three levels of reflective sheeting: Engineer-grade, High Intensity, or Diamond-grade, or you can decide to forgo reflective sheeting entirely.
How to Use Your Traffic Safety Barrel:
Use traffic safety barrels to enclose work areas and redirect traffic away from closed lanes. When properly weighted down with sandbags or a rubber base, the barrels will generally remain in place and resist minor shifting caused by the vibrations of passing vehicles. It’s essential to note that if a traffic barrel is struck with significant force, the plastic body may separate from the rubber base; this is a safety feature, not a manufacturing defect. In most cases, plastic barrels that have been warped by impact can be reshaped by hand to their original form.
