REACT 350(R)
Is The Toughest, Lowest Maintenance, Highest Performance Work Zone Crash Cushion Available!


The REACT 350 is the industry's most durable crash cushion for sites with high impact frequency. The system meets NCHRP 350 TL 2 or 3 and is 90% self-restoring after design impacts, keeping the hazard protected even after an impact occurs. It helps reduce liability in the event of secondary impacts.

The REACT 350 System is 90-100% reusable after design impacts and typically requires minimal repairs, if any. The system often endures repeated impacts and remains in service at the most demanding sites. The end result is extremely low maintenance requirements, low lifecycle costs and reduced liability because the system retains attenuation capacity after an impact.

What's Your Liability
After impacts, most crash cushions leave the hazard unprotected... NOT the REACT 350!

When disposable or partially reusable crash cushions are impacted, the hazard is no longer shielded until the system is repaired or replaced. The unprotected hazard is a potential liability if secondary impacts occur before the system is restored. The REACT 350 System retains up to 100% of its attenuation capacity after design impacts, so the hazard remains shielded. This performance helps significantly reduce liability.

Why Specify "Severe Duty?"

  • When you can't afford to use a non-redirective crash cushion (like barrels) due to replacement costs from repeated impacts.

  • When the hazard is too dangerous to be unprotected after an impact occurs - liability!

  • When the site is too dangerous to expose workers to traffic during system repair.

  • When repairing the crash cushion will disrupt traffic flow.

  • When there is potential for extreme impact conditions, such as full-scale truck impacts.

  • When you want a high performance, low maintenance crash cushion with the lowest lifecycle costs!



How Does The REACT 350 Remain In Service After Design Impacts?


The REACT 350 self-restores up to 100% of its attenuation capacity after a typical design impact and remains in service protecting a hazard. This unique ability is the result of the highly durable HMW/HDPE cylinders and the internal steel rods that hold the cylinders in place even when the side cables are not intact after an impact.
