2MTR RB2000 HEAVY DUTY BARRIER

RB2000 2M Heavy-Duty Water-Filled Barrier: The Infrastructure Powerhouse

The RB2000 is a premium, heavy-duty containment barrier widely regarded as the industry standard for high-wind environments and major infrastructure projects (including HS2). While the Novus and EVO models are excellent for standard site delineation, the RB2000 is engineered for maximum stability, boasting a massive 400kg filled weight—nearly double that of the Novus.

Its patented 5-position interlocking system allows the barrier to create a seamless, flat-walled perimeter that can flow around tight corners and navigate uneven terrain without compromising structural integrity.

Features

• Exceptional Wind Resistance: MIRA-tested to withstand wind speeds of up to 72 mph without failure. This makes it the go-to choice for exposed highways, airports, and dockyards where stability is critical.
• Massive Ballast Capacity: Once filled with 365 litres of water, a single unit reaches 400kg. This high weight-to-footprint ratio provides superior impact absorption and prevents unauthorized tampering or movement.
• Versatile Cornering: Unlike standard barriers, the RB2000 features a unique connecting system that supports angles of up to 35° per unit, allowing for smooth, gap-free curves and 90° bends.
• HGV & High-Speed Approved: Often used as a low-level containment system for HGV access and high-speed road works, providing a much higher level of protection than lighter alternatives.
• Modular Height Security: Features pre-moulded sockets that accept anti-climb mesh or solid hoarding panels, extending the total height to 2.1 meters for a fully secure site compound.
• Logistics Friendly: Despite its heavy-duty performance, it weighs only 35kg empty, allowing for two-person manual handling. Integrated forklift slots ensure easy movement of bulk loads (up to 6 units per pallet).

Applications

• Major Highways & Arterial Roads: Secure lane closures and protect work crews from high-speed traffic.
• Airports & Dockyards: High-wind areas requiring extremely stable perimeter demarcation.
• Deep Excavations: Use with hoarding panels to secure hazardous site perimeters and deep trenches.
• High-Profile Public Events: Robust crowd control for large-scale gatherings where pedestrian safety is paramount.
