Global Industrial rolls out its own Plastic Guard Rails
Global Industrial Company, a national distributor and source for industrial equipment and supplies, launched its newest Global Industrial Exclusive Brand solution: the Global Industrial Plastic Guard Rail.
The Global Industrial Plastic Guard Rail is engineered to provide protection for people, products, and equipment from collision damage. Its patent-pending design combines durable construction with the flexibility to absorb impact force, reducing facility floor damage and the need for replacement rails. Optional drop-in/lift out rail brackets further enhance system flexibility, allowing rails to be lifted out quickly to simplify equipment movement and maintenance while reducing assembly time.
"Our new plastic guard rails include multiple post heights, post styles, and rail lengths, providing customers with customized configurations to fit their facilities' requirements," said John Franceschini, senior category manager at Global Industrial. "The patent-pending design delivers an exceptional impact rating and its energy-absorbing rubber base helps reduce floor damage. These features help lower the total cost of ownership when compared to alternative solutions and deliver exceptional value to our customers."
Features of the new plastic guard rail system include:
- Flexible and Durable Construction: Patent-pending design that reduces the need for replacements and maintenance compared to traditional steel configurations
- Long-Lasting Protection: Chip, rust, flake, and corrosion-resistant, as well as freeze & flame resistant with a rating of UL94 V2 that can withstand temperatures as low as -94°F to as hot as 158°F
- ANSI I 9-7 Compliant (20K Joules / 9,000 LBS. at 7MPH): Exceptional impact rating when used as a complete system
- Tailored to Your Space: 17 SKUs available, including 3 post heights (18 inch, 42 inch, 60 inch), 3 post styles (end, middle, corner), and 8 rail lengths (3 to 10 feet) to fit a range of layouts
