When you have to keep your eye on the budget a Z-section post can be just what you need to lower costs whilst still providing great protection. This Z section dig in post is the best value post available in our Armco range giving great performance at an exceptional price point.
Even though this crash barrier upright comes in at the cheapest price point in the range, it is still made to the same high standards as the rest of our armo range. Offering a quality galvanised finish and precision drilled mounting points that ensure assembly is as easy as possible, and that the lifespan of the post is as long as possible.
This cast in Armco post is a great value alternative to the RSJ counterparts, it can however only be installed in areas where it is possible to excavate foundations. For areas where this is not possible, such as multi-story car parks, or already concreted areas a bolt down post solution may be more suitable.
With choices between bolt down, cast in (dig in) z section and RSJ configurations selecting the right post can be daunting. A few considerations can easily help you decide on which system is the most appropriate.
The I-Beam (RSJ) profile Armco post offers improved strength over Z section posts. RSJ posts are ideal for applications where heavier vehicles are present. For Lighter low-speed applications Z-section posts offer plenty of stopping power.
Z-section beams are the post of choice for those who have budget restrictions, as they offer a significant cost saving over their RSJ Counterparts whilst still delivering excellent vehicle restraint performance.
