MAX-Tension Tangent TL-2
The MAX-Tension TL2 is a redirective, non-gating tension based end terminal designed for W-Beam guardrail. The system includes an energy absorbing impact head, two tensioned cables, ground anchor assembly and couplers with built-in cutting tooth technology. The lightweight impact head allows for quick and easy installation. The MAX-Tension TL2 absorbs energy by creating friction in the tension cables and cutting the downstream guardrail panels. During side impacts, the system acts as a guardrail and redirects vehicles away from the roadside hazard.
