Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the 6-foot I-beam rail over the 6-foot economy rail?
The I-beam rail is made from flexible polyethylene that bends on vehicle impact and springs back to shape, dramatically reducing replacement costs in active work zones. It also accepts sign clips for direct sign mounting. Economy rails are rigid and more affordable but crack on impact.
What signs can I mount on the I-beam rail?
Using the sign clip (A44003-RSCV), you can mount any rectangular sign up to 24 inches wide by 18 inches high -- including Road Closed, Detour, Men Working, and other standard MUTCD regulatory and warning signs.
How does this rail handle extreme temperatures?
The polyethylene construction remains flexible across a wide temperature range. Unlike rigid plastic that becomes brittle in cold weather, I-beam rails maintain their impact-resistant flex properties in both extreme heat and freezing conditions.
Can I use this rail for Type II or Type III barricades?
Yes. Stack two 6-foot I-beam rails on the same pair of A-Frame legs using both board-opening slots to create a Type II barricade. For Type III barricades, use three rails with taller support structures per MUTCD specifications.
What is the sheeting lifespan on I-beam rails?
Reflective sheeting typically maintains MUTCD-compliant retroreflectivity for 7-10 years depending on the grade and environmental exposure. Diamond Grade (DG) sheeting has the longest lifespan. Inspect sheeting annually and replace rails when retroreflectivity falls below minimum standards.
