Unique installation versatility
Kalitec's flexible marker is typically installed in the center of the roadway, both for its message and to create a lane narrowing effect, thus reducing vehicle speeds. Thanks to its central Steel-Flex, the bollard bends upon impact and returns to its original vertical position. The prints are protected by a laminated anti-UV film.
Specifications
Two (2) 3 mm clear polycarbonate (Lexan) plates with printed high-intensity vinyl (custom prints available)
- Installed on Steel-Flex with stainless steel screws and rivets all around
- The Steel-Flex is composed of a painted spring steel strip and a flexible polymer base (see product technical sheet).
Multiple model choices
Choose from several templates or fully customizable.
Anchoring
Installed on Steel-Flex with stainless steel screws and rivets all around into concrete or asphalt
Your flexible markers at glance
Kalitec flexible markers are ideal because they bend on impact and return to their original shape in a few seconds. They are robust and withstand multiple repeated impacts.
A flexible traffic marker (often called a delineator or flexible guide post) is a road safety device designed to mark lanes while being able to bend upon impact.
Kalitec flexible markers are made of two (2) 3 mm clear polycarbonate (Lexan) plates with printed high-intensity vinyl, allowing them to return to their original vertical position after being struck by a vehicle.
The base of the marker is often the most technological part: it integrates the spring mechanism or the flexibility of the material allowing the post to "come back to life" after an impact.
Increased safety: They delimit lanes, indicate danger zones, and improve signage in all circumstances.
Resistant materials: Made of steel and flexible polyurethane, they return to their original shape after impact, thus reducing maintenance costs.
Optimal visibility: Available with high-intensity reflective vinyl strips, they remain visible day and night.
Easy installation: Their quick fastening allows for efficient setup on roads, parking lots, bike paths, construction sites, etc.
Frequently Asked Questions
Lane separation: Used to guide drivers and prevent dangerous lane changes.
Protection of pedestrian areas: Mark out pedestrian crossings in urban areas.
Securing parking lots: Delimit parking spaces and direct traffic flow.
Flexible delineators are generally installed in the center of streets in school zones and areas where it is necessary to channel traffic or enhance user safety.
A flexible bollard is primarily used to guide and channel traffic while regaining its shape after impact. A rigid bollard is generally more robust and is mainly used to protect infrastructure or restrict access to certain areas. Our Kali-Flex flexible bollard regains its shape after impact.
Yes. Kalitec flexible guide posts are designed to bend upon impact and return to their original upright position. This feature reduces damage and replacement costs while maintaining a high level of safety.
Yes. Installed in the center of the road, they create a visual effect of lane narrowing that naturally encourages drivers to slow down. Several municipalities use them as a traffic calming measure.
