System Overview
The MAX-Tension™ TL-2 Guardrail Terminal
System (MAX TL-2) is a redirective, non-
gating tension-based end terminal for
corrugated W-Beam barrier systems in tangent
configurations. The MAX TL-2 system has been
tested and evaluated per the recommendations
set forth in the
Manual for Assessing Safety
Hardware (MASH) Test Level 2 tests at 70 km/h .
The system utilizes tensioned cables and a
cutting tooth to absorb kinetic energy and
safely contain or redirect an impacting vehicle.
The system is comprised of a friction-based
energy-absorbing impact head, two tensioned
cables, a releasable Post 1, a ground anchor
assembly and an energy-absorbing coupler with
integrated cutting tooth used in conjunction
with standard W-Beam guardrail panels, post,
blockouts, and hardware.
The MAX TL-2 is applied directly to W-Beam
guardrail systems at, or transitioned to 787mm
with panels and post spacing configured at mid-
span splice. Transitions to strong post W-Beam
guardrail systems or other barriers where the
splice is not mid-span can be accomplished
using a 1.00m panel after the MAX TL-2 system
[minimum of 7.62m downstream of the first
post] in accordance with Federal, State, and
Local standards. Transitions to other barrier
systems such as thrie beam or rigid bridge or
roadside barriers shall be in accordance with
Federal, State, and Local requirements and
attached after the MAX TL-2 system [minimum
of 7.62m downstream of the first post].
