CASS® S3 M10

The CASS® S3 M10 cable barrier system assists in redirecting errant vehicles that would otherwise traverse the median of a roadway. The post employs a unique wave-shaped slot, which works in tandem with a strategically positioned, widened cable spread designed to help restrain various types of vehicles that impact the system within the Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware (MASH) crash test standards.
