Product Description

Broadfence’s Water-Filled Barrier is a portable, plastic, ballast-fillable barrier for traffic control, perimeter protection, and site separation. Our water-filled barrier gives contractors and municipalities a portable barrier that can be positioned by hand and ballasted in place. Once filled through the large threaded top fill-port with water, the barrier provides mass and clear delineation for channeling traffic, protecting work areas, and separating vehicles from pedestrian routes.

Dual bottom drain plugs make relocation straightforward as work zones move, and two molded-in pockets on top accept standard blinking lights for improved visibility during night work and low-light conditions. Barriers link together to form continuous runs for lane closures, detours, access control, and site frontage.

Each barrier measures 72 in. long by 32 in. high and weighs about 67 lbs empty, then fills with 81 gallons of water for a deployable weight of roughly 745 lbs, so crews can install it by hand with no heavy machinery. As a longitudinal channelizing device it conforms to the roadway, turning 90 degrees and adjusting to curbs up to a 6 degree incline, and connector pins snap onto the barricade for storage. The barrier is crash tested to TL-3 MASH acceptance and submitted to the FHWA, meets MUTCD standards, and is made in the U.S.A. A unique stacking design ships up to 200 units per truckload, and two forklift access points speed loading and unloading.

Broadfence supplies barriers on a sell-and-ship basis, so buyers keep a reusable traffic management asset available for every project. Suitable for road and highway work, utility and municipal projects, parking and site access control, and event vehicle separation, these barriers support safer, clearly organized work zones.
