PRODUCT ID: RPORZSM238SNAPNSAFE
Material: Cast Gray Iron
Withstands winds of 120 mph.
EASY INSTALLATION: Simply drill (3) holes in concrete using the base as guide. Secure coupler to concrete with (3) bolts. Attach sign post with (2) bolts.
Installation hardware included.
Compatibility: For use with 8 to 16 gauge steel, 2-3/8" diameter round posts.
360 degree shear point.
Reduces the risk of occupant injury, the sign post will no longer strike and penetrate the windshield or roof of a vehicle during a collision.
Installation Notes on the Challenge of Anchoring to Asphalt: Asphalt is gravel held together with oily pitch ("Bitumen"). Unlike concrete, asphalt will yield to forces applied for extended amount of time. For this reason, the common expansion anchors (which are used on concrete) can not be used for fastening to asphalt. Any expansion anchor installed in asphalt will loosen and fail within days.

Ideal for airport and airfield perimeter fencing installation.

The SNAP’n SAFE breakaway devices are approved by the FAA as a 'frangible connection' as stated in the Advisory Circular 150/5220-23.
The frangibility connection performance has been tested and approved by the FHWA.
The breakaway devices provide a valuable and economical solution for posts or poles needing frangible support structures.
Ground mount SNAP'n SAFE units work especially well in perimeter fencing applications.
Surface Mount SNAP'n SAFE units provide a frangible connection when mounting directly to concrete.
Allows reuse of existing sign and anchor posts, saving time, labor, and material costs—critical for large airport campuses with extensive signage.
Eliminates concrete boring with available surfaceâ€‘mount designs, supporting quick deployment in paved areas such as ramps, taxiway edges, and service roads.
Reduces risk of vehicle damage by ensuring the post breaks away rather than penetrating windshields or equipment in the event of impact.
