Description

In the world of traffic management, “tipping over” is the enemy. On open coastal roads, high-altitude bridges, and airport tarmacs, wind speeds can easily exceed 80 km/h. Standard cones, with their narrow footprints, simply cannot cope with these forces. They tumble, roll, and become hazards themselves. The Tall Traffic Cone (1000mm) is engineered to conquer the wind. By combining massive weight with an industry-leading footprint width, we have created a safety device that stands firm when others fall.

The “Wide Base” Revolution: 490mm x 490mm
The secret to the stability of this Extra Wide Base Cone is not just its weight, but its geometry. Most standard 1-meter cones have a base width of around 380mm to 400mm. While adequate for city use, this narrow stance makes them vulnerable to the “leverage effect” of wind pushing on the top of the cone. Our model features a massive 490mm x 490mm Base.

• Physics of Stability: By extending the base width by nearly 25% compared to standard models, we significantly lower the leverage ratio. It takes considerably more force to tip this cone over because the pivot point is further from the center.
• Anchor Effect: This wide footprint acts like a snowshoe or an anchor, distributing the 1000mm Safety Cone weight over a larger area. This prevents the cone from sinking into soft mud or melting asphalt on hot days, while simultaneously gripping the road surface against sliding.

Massive Weight: 5.2 KG of Solid Protection
Weight is the second half of the stability equation. Weighing in at 5.2 KG, this is the heaviest cone in our 1-meter lineup.

• Jet Blast Resistance: This specific weight class is often requested by Airport Traffic Cone buyers. On runways and taxiways, the jet blast from aircraft engines can generate hurricane-force winds. A 5.2kg cone with a wide base is designed to resist these sudden blasts, ensuring Foreign Object Debris (FOD) does not enter active flight paths.
• Storm Proof: For coastal highways and sea-link bridges where crosswinds are constant, this cone provides the reliability maintenance crews need. You won’t have to patrol the line every hour to pick up fallen cones.

Unmatched Visibility: The 11-Inch Sleeve
A tall cone is useless if it isn’t seen. While most highway cones feature a standard 4-inch or 6-inch reflective strip, this Tall Traffic Cone is equipped with a massive 11-Inch Retro Reflective Sleeve.

• A Solid Block of Light: This extra-tall sleeve covers nearly 30% of the cone’s height. When headlights hit it at night, it doesn’t just look like a thin line; it looks like a solid pillar of light.
• Long-Distance Warning: This High Visibility Reflective Cone ensures that drivers of fast-moving vehicles on expressways see the diversion from hundreds of meters away, giving them ample time to react safely.

Durability and Construction
We build these cones to survive the harshest environments.

• Virgin PVC Body: The orange body is molded from flexible Virgin PVC. It is soft enough to bounce back if hit by a car, yet rigid enough to stand tall in the heat.
• Interlocking Base: The heavy black rubber base and the orange body are fused together. They cannot be separated, ensuring the cone remains a single solid unit throughout its lifespan.
• Stackable Design: Despite the extra-wide base, we have engineered the profile to allow for nesting. You can stack these cones efficiently for transport, maximizing space on your maintenance trucks.

Ideal Applications
This premium product is over-engineered for a reason. It is the specific choice for:

• International Airports: Runway maintenance, taxiway closures, and refueling zones.
• Coastal Expressways: Bridges and roads exposed to high sea winds.
• Mountain Passes: High-altitude roads where wind gusts are unpredictable.
• Mining Haul Roads: Where massive vehicles require large, visible markers that won’t get blown over by the dust wake of a dump truck.
• Checkpoints: Police and military zones requiring a formidable visual barrier.

Conclusion
When the weather gets rough, standard equipment fails. Upgrade to the 1000mm Safety Cone with the Extra Wide Base. It is the heaviest, widest, and most visible protection you can buy for your high-risk work zones.
