Description

On national highways and open expressways, speed is the enemy of safety. Drivers traveling at 80 to 100 km/h need significant reaction time to spot a lane closure or hazard. Standard 750mm cones, while useful in cities, can easily be obscured by the crest of a hill or the bulk of other vehicles. The Highway Traffic Cone (1000mm) is engineered to solve this problem. Standing a full 1 Meter Traffic Cone tall, it provides a towering visual warning that commands attention from long distances, ensuring that even drivers of high-cab trucks, buses, and trailers see the diversion well in advance.

Why Height Matters on Highways
The primary advantage of upgrading to a 1000mm Safety Cone is the “Sight Line.”

• Truck & Bus Visibility: Commercial vehicle drivers sit high above the road. A short cone is often hidden below their dashboard sightline when they get close to the taper. This 1-meter cone remains visible, reducing accidental run-overs.
• Advance Warning: The extra height allows the reflective bands to be placed higher off the ground. This means headlights catch the reflection sooner, giving drivers those crucial extra seconds to brake safely.

Heavy-Duty Stability: The Black Rubber Base
Height creates wind resistance. To ensure this tall cone doesn’t become a kite in a storm, it is anchored by a massive Heavy Base Road Cone design.

• Low Center of Gravity: We utilize a dense, recycled Black Base Traffic Cone foundation. By concentrating the weight at the very bottom, we ensure that the cone remains upright even when subjected to the strong crosswinds found on bridges or the powerful vacuum draft created by passing semi-trucks.
• Interlocking Construction: The fluorescent orange body and the black rubber base are mechanically locked together. They function as a single solid unit, durable enough to withstand being thrown off maintenance trucks or dragged across rough asphalt.
• Grip Performance: The rubber base offers superior friction against road surfaces compared to plastic. It grips the tarmac, preventing the cone from “walking” or sliding into active lanes during heavy rain or vibrations.

High-Fidelity Reflectivity
A highway never sleeps, and neither should your safety equipment.

• Daytime: The vibrant fluorescent orange body provides high-contrast visibility against grey concrete and black asphalt. It is UV-stabilized to prevent fading under the harsh sun.
• Nighttime: Each Reflective Highway Cone is fitted with high-intensity retro-reflective sleeves. These premium collars reflect light with brilliant intensity, ensuring the cone acts as a glowing beacon for night-time drivers. This is a mandatory requirement for all National Highway (NH) projects.

Cost-Effective Large Scale Solution
We understand that covering kilometers of highway requires a lot of equipment. This product is positioned as our “Workhorse” highway cone. It offers the Heavy Base Road Cone stability you need without the extreme cost of specialized hexagonal or anti-roll models. This makes it the perfect choice for large-scale procurement where budget efficiency is as important as safety performance. It is the reliable, affordable choice for road widening projects, long-term diversions, and toll plaza management.

Durability for Indian Roads
Indian roads are tough. Extreme heat, monsoon rains, and heavy dust are the norm. The Highway Traffic Cone is built to endure it all.

• Flexible Body: The cone body is made from flexible material that can withstand minor impacts. If a car clips the cone, it will bend rather than shatter, protecting the vehicle and saving you replacement costs.
• Weather Proof: The materials are resistant to oil, road salts, and exhaust fumes, ensuring they don’t degrade in the harsh highway environment.

Ideal Applications
This 1 Meter Traffic Cone is designed for specific high-risk zones:

• National Highways: Meeting the height standards for high-speed traffic.
• Expressways: Where early visibility is critical for safety.
• Toll Plazas: Guiding heavy trucks into the correct lanes.
• Checkpoints: Police and border control agencies use them to create imposing, visible barriers.
• Construction Sites: Marking deep excavation zones where a tall barrier is needed to prevent falls.

Conclusion
When you are managing traffic on the open road, don’t take chances with small, unstable markers. Upgrade to the Highway Traffic Cone (1000mm) and give your road crews the protection of maximum visibility and stability.
