C40
Traffic Impact Bollards

Ultimate Stopping Power

Protect People, Places & Products

Ideal Shield’s C40 Traffic Impact Bollard are the industry’s most cost-effective crash bollard and are designed for storefront and property protection.

Engineered and independently tested to meet the ASTM C40 P1 Standard and designed to meet the ASTM F2656 storefront requirements, these 6″ security bollard barriers are designed for bi-directional stopping capability meaning they can be hit from any angle and keep its strength. 

One properly installed single standalone bollard is engineered and designed to stop a 5,000 lbs. vehicle at 30 mph impact with less than 24″ of vehicle penetration, which makes it equal to or greater than the S10, S20 and S30 standards. 

The Traffic Impact Bollard is available in both permanent and removable options, with both options distributing exceptional stopping power making it an ideal application for storefronts, schools, and other pedestrian-friendly areas. If you’re looking to add more protective signage to your storefront, Bollard Sign Systems are available as well. 

To save time and money on the installation, the simple Set & Pour installation will also make life easier for everyone. Simply set a single prefabricated steel bollard in excavation and pour in the concrete (no rebar in the foundation). Don’t worry about tying, bolting, welding, assembly, or specialty subgrade, as it is not required. The bollards are one single unit with a lifting pin to make the installation even easier.

These TIB-67-SA Bollards are also cost-effective as the bollards have an unrestricted spacing limit and can also be field adjusted, as it is easy to properly install with turns and across grade elevation changes using a standard bollard.

Once your new Safety Bollards are in place, you’ll want to make it look good by covering it with an Ideal Shield Bollard Cover. Sleeve it with our Standard Dome-Top Bollard Covers, our stylish Decorative Bollard Covers, or any of our other Bollard Cover options to make the barrier more visually appealing.

Galvanizing or powder coated finishes are also available upon request.

What our customers are saying

“We purchased some sign bollard covers from you all a few months ago and they work great! So far we’ve had 0 signs fall over in our parking lot. This time last year we had 2-3 fall over so already we’ve saved roughly $500 dollars in damages.”

William Myers - Amazon

“I have been truly impressed with the covers we bought from you so many years ago. They have been exposed to direct sunlight for years and have not faded one bit after all this time! Kudos!”

Mark C. - UBT

“First and foremost, we have loved the sign bases. They have gone through the various states of weather that Minnesota has to offer and they are withstanding the weather and doing a great job for us. At this time, we have all of our needs, however, after the Super Bowl and when we head into our spring events we could be looking to purchasing additional signs. ” 

Representative from US Bank Stadium, home of the Minnesota Vikings & Super Bowl 52

“This is just what we were looking for. Well made. We will be installing it next week. Everyone here is excited to have a railing to hang onto with winter coming. We at St. Cyprian thank you and your facility for help us.”

Donnie Frederick - Odessa College

Kari Carper - BDH Contracting
