Anchoring Options
Anchor Type | Description | Unique Feature |
---|---|---|
Single Breakaway Anchor | Can be used by one man working at ground level using manual or power equipment | Minimum installation time |
Two-Piece Breakaway Anchor | Can be created by adding an outer sleeve to the original anchor base. This provides a double wall thickness to create breakaway function. | Yielding breakaway system |
Heavy Duty Anchor | For use with larger signposts. The heavy wall eliminates the need for a stiffener sleeve enabling the signpost to break on impact. | Works well in concrete and areas of high impact |
Stabilization Anchor Sleeve | Attaches to a single anchor with corner bolt then bolted through the post at top of anchor. Should always be attached to the corner farthest from traffic. | For use with soft or drop-off shoulders in loose or sandy soil |
Omni-Directional Anchor | Designed specifically for ease of installation in loose soil conditions enabling the post to perform well when impacted. | Easily retrofitted to correct problem installations |
Slip Base Breakaway System | For use with larger signs when the post is too strong to perform a normal breakaway function. Allows the unit to slip away without creating an unacceptable impact condition. | One of the most economical replacements in the industry |
Note: The telespar sign support system can be directly embedded using a drive cap and sledge, with a pneumatic hammer or by means of self-contained power equipment.
The Corner Bolt
Requiring only a single wrench, the corner bolt provides a tighter more stable installation by concentrating tension on only one corner of the tubing.
Drive Rivets
Drive rivets provide the convenience of a one-piece fastener with effective tamper resistant design and fast installation requiring only a hammer.
Hex Nuts and Bolts
Standard hex nuts and bolts can also be used to connect components. A special jam nut is available to help form a permanent tamper resistant connection
Lock Pins
The lock pin allows for a quick temporary connection between telescoping tube sections. Simply align holes between sections, insert the lock pin and allow it to drop into a locking position.
A complete line of fittings is also available with the Telespar system. Contact one of our Telespar sales representatives for more information.
