Low-speed bollards are barriers that can withstand impacts from vehicles traveling at minimal speeds. These bollards are designed and tested to absorb a vehicle’s impact and prevent significant injury to pedestrians. Installing crash-tested bollards on sidewalks, in parking lots and other pedestrian zones creates a physical barrier that prevents vehicles from entering while reducing the risk of accidents.

Low-speed bollards can also help control traffic flow and define specific boundaries for vehicles and pedestrians. They can guide vehicles along desired paths, designate parking spaces or mark restricted areas, enhancing organization and safety.

Blockaides is your single source for all your bollard and barrier needs, including low-speed crash-tested bollards. We offer these barriers in various carbon steels, as well as 304 and 316 stainless steels. To enhance the product, we have various powder coat finishes available. This coating can protect the bollard material in harsher environments or can be applied for aesthetic reasons.

Types of Low-Speed Safety Bollards We Offer

Blockaides supplies low-speed bollards in fixed, removable, and automatic designs. Low-speed fixed bollards are permanent solutions that can help control traffic and maintain security in areas with constant or heavy traffic. Low-speed removable bollards lock into the ground and are portable, making them practical solutions for areas requiring temporary protection or traffic control.

All bollards are crash-tested according to ASTM F3016 guidelines. We offer these specific designs, where miles per hour (mph) designations indicate a 5,000-pound vehicle’s speed during testing:

  • 10 mph low-speed fixed bollard (S10)
  • 10 mph low-speed removable bollard (S10)
  • 20 mph low-speed fixed bollard (S20)
  • 20 mph low-speed removable bollard (S20)
  • 30 mph low-speed fixed bollard (S30)
  • 30 mph low-speed removable bollard (S30)
  • 30 mph low-speed automatic bollard (S30)

What Is the ASTM F3016 Testing Standard for Low-Speed Bollards?

ASTM F3016 is a framework for evaluating the performance and effectiveness of bollards when subjected to low-speed vehicle impacts. The purpose is to ensure bollards can prevent damage to storefronts or injury to pedestrians that would be caused by vehicles traveling at low speeds in parking lots or pedestrian areas.

The standard outlines test methods and criteria for measuring various factors, including structural integrity, the ability to absorb impact forces, and resistance to displacement or deformation. By following these guidelines, manufacturers can assess the performance of their products, helping ensure they meet production standards and the necessary safety requirements.
