What is a self-righting traffic cylinder?
A self-righting traffic cylinder is a flexible traffic delineator designed to bend when contacted and return to its upright position. This makes it useful for marking routes, lanes and traffic-management boundaries where a rigid post may be less suitable.

What is the traffic cylinder made from?
The cylinder is manufactured from flexible LDPE. This allows the body to bend on contact and return upright rather than functioning as a rigid traffic post.
Does the traffic cylinder return upright after vehicle contact?
Yes. The cylinder is designed to flex when contacted and then self-right. It is intended for traffic delineation and guidance applications where occasional contact may occur.
How is the traffic cylinder fixed to the ground?
The cylinder can be installed using the Cats Eye Base. The associated adhesive pad measures 260mm in diameter and 2mm thick, with a stated application temperature range of 5°C to 30°C. Installation should be carried out on a suitable stable substrate.
Where can self-righting traffic cylinders be used?
They can be used for lane definition, vehicle segregation, car parks, roadworks, temporary traffic layouts, pedestrian delineation and hazard marking. The correct layout and installation method should be selected for the specific site and traffic-management requirements.
