iFlexRail Column Guard+
The iFlexRail Column Guard with an integrated Traffic Rail added at the base, for columns in high-traffic areas. Like the standard guard it stands off from the column and fits any column shape or size. The maker rates it at 13,750 J at 90°, which it equates to a 4.2 US ton vehicle at 6 mph, for vehicles with an impact height of 8″ to 15-5/9″.

Blow-molded HDPE column guards that wrap around a building column in two halves and strap together with no tools, putting a highly visible barrier at the base of the column where forklifts and material handling equipment strike. They are sold as a lightweight, easy-to-install alternative to steel guarding, and because they strap on, they can be repositioned or replaced as the layout changes. The standard model is 42″ tall with a 24″ outside diameter, with square openings for 6″ to 12″ columns (which also fit round columns) and a 9″ round opening. A 24″ Short, a 6″ Slim and a Bolt Together model for 14″ to 18″ columns complete the range.

A curved steel guard, 16-1/2″ high, that bolts to the floor against a building column, drain pipe or other fixed equipment. It comes prefabricated, so there is no welding or cutting on site, and the anchors sit inside the curve out of the way of traffic. The maker recommends a set of four to cover all sides of a column.
- Height: 16-1/2″
- Mounting: Two 5/8″ internal holes · 1/2″ anchors, not included
- Coverage: Set of four recommended for all sides of a column
- Construction: Prefabricated steel, no on-site welding or cutting
A tight-fit polymer column guard for square and rectangular building columns. Interlocking corner sections and expansion panels close onto all four sides of the column with a minimal footprint, and a step at the base encloses the column’s base plate to shield its fixings. Each guard covers an impact height of 0 to 20-1/2″, and guards stack to reach any height. The maker positions it for light impacts and glancing blows, and rates it at 1,600 J at a 90° approach, which it equates to a 2 US ton vehicle at 3 mph.
- Fits: Square and rectangular columns · built to size from corner sections and expansion panels
- Impact height: 0–20-1/2″ per guard; stack guards for more height
- Maker rating: 1,600 J at 90° · equivalent to 2 US ton at 3 mph
- Compression: 4″ at maximum energy
