Head-On ImpactsDuring head-on impacts, the QuadGuard® Elite crash cushion system telescopes rearward, crushing the reusable cylinders to absorb the energy of impact. Redirective CapabilityWhen impacted from the side, QuadGuard® Elite redirects the errant vehicle back toward its original travel path without allowing gating. Reusable CylindersReusable cylinders provide one of the lowest lifecycle costs of any attenuator. Quad-Beam™ PanelsQuad-Beam™ panels provide 30% higher beam strength than thrie beam. Quad-Beam™ panels also protect the reusable cylinders and reduce rebound velocity. Monorail BaseMonorail base eliminates the need for chains and cables providing excellent redirective capability.
