NU-GUARD 31 W-Beam Guardrail System

NU-GUARD 31 is a W-beam guardrail post system that combines NCHRP 350 (TL-3 and TL-4) and MASH (TL-3) compliance with a design that makes installation and repairs simple, fast and inexpensive.

Specially designe 5 lb/ft RIB-BAK U-channel steel posts allow a standard W-beam guardrail to rise during impact with the vehicle, dissipating energy in an innovative way, resulting in smoother, more predictable redirection.

NU-GUARD 31 eliminates the need for offset blocks or heavy, expensive thrie-beam guardrail. Standard bolts with a  specially designed washer are all you need to attach a standard W-beam guardrail to the uniquely designed posts.

The revolutionary NU-GUARD 31 system is much faster, easier and less costly to install than traditional wood or I-beam post systems. The RIB-BAK U-channel steel posts are quickly and easily direct-driven into the ground or theough asphalt to the proper depth. With no holes to auger, total installation time is dramatically faster than standard post sytems.
