Heald says its Matador4 bollard was fully functional with zero penetration and dispersion after being struck by a 7,500kg truck travelling at 48mph during a recent crash test. The model, comprising two central moving bollards and based on the Matador3, gives a clear opening of just over 4metres. Surface mounted and only needing to be bolted into place, the Matador4 is said by Heald to be ideal for a variety of applications including temporary installations.
