SLED Anchorless Crash Cushion

The TRAFFIX SLED is an NCHRP 350 TL-3 accepted anchorless, non-redirective crash cushion ideal for rugged environments like work zones. The SLED System is designed to shield the end of all permanent and temporary portable barrier shapes including concrete, steel and plastic. The SLED System's unique design incorporates four internal steel cables which help envelop the impacting vehicle, reducing the possibility of secondary accidents.
