Square Slipbase Breakaway System

The Square Slip Base Breakaway sign support systems are designed to facilitate easier installation and maintenance, and to help minimize damage upon vehicle impact within NCHRP Report 350 crash test standards. The system is tested to NCHRP Report 350 and designed to AASHTO guidelines.

In the event of an impact within NCHRP Report 350 crash test standards, the system retaining plate is designed to shear allowing the post and casting to release from the post base. Repairs can be as easy as replacing the retaining plate and resetting the bolts holding the casting to the anchor.*
