TRAILER MOUNTED ATTENUATORS
The Attenuator Truck (TMA) consists of strut and cartridge sections that are linked together on a support frame. The curved side rails are made of corrosion-resistant aluminum tubes which offer full width impact protection. The side rails are designed to re-direct errant vehicles away from the rear of the truck.
The aluminum boxes are filled with a moisture proof, aluminum honeycomb material. The boxes, together with the curved side rails, absorb the energy from an impacting vehicle. The aluminum boxes are painted with a bright yellow powder-coated finish for lasting durability.
This TMA has been tested and has PASSED ALL optional and mandatory requirements suggested in the NCHRP-350 report for TL-3. Additionally, the TMA has passed the UKTD49, 68 MPH test. It has also successfully passed a “worst case” side angle re-directive impact test – this goes beyond all governmental testing requirements. Full details available upon request.
