36×4.5 Surface Mounted Bollard by Vestil Multi Color Heavy Duty Blend

Description

Product Overview

The Vestil 36×4.5 Surface Mounted Bollard is engineered for demanding industrial environments where safety, durability, and space efficiency are paramount. Measuring 36 inches in height with a compact footprint of 10.25 x 10.25 inches, this bollard occupies minimal floor space while delivering maximum impact resistance. Constructed from a proprietary blend of high‑strength materials, the post combines the rigidity of metal with the corrosion resistance of advanced polymers, ensuring a long service life even in harsh, moisture‑laden settings.

Designed with a multi‑color finish, the bollard not only meets functional requirements but also adds visual distinction to work zones, helping personnel quickly identify protected areas. The model BOL‑RF‑36‑4.5 carries the trusted Vestil brand name, known for rigorous quality control and compliance with industry standards. With a package weight of 32 pounds, the unit is heavy enough to stay firmly in place yet manageable for a two‑person installation team.

Installation is straightforward: the surface‑mounted design allows the bollard to be anchored directly to concrete, steel, or other solid substrates using standard hardware. No specialized tools or welding are required, reducing labor costs and downtime. The included mounting kit aligns with the 36‑inch height specification, guaranteeing a level and secure fit that meets the exacting demands of drum and pail deheading stations.

Beyond its primary role as a traffic‑control device, the bollard serves as a protective barrier for valuable equipment such as conveyors, forklifts, and storage racks. Its robust construction absorbs accidental impacts, preventing costly damage and downtime. The blend material also offers excellent resistance to chemicals, oils, and solvents commonly found in industrial facilities, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Overall, the Vestil 36×4.5 Surface Mounted Bollard delivers a balanced combination of strength, visibility, and ease of installation, positioning it as a reliable solution for safety‑critical zones across manufacturing plants, warehouses, and processing facilities.

Usage

In drum and pail deheading operations, the bollard acts as a physical cue that delineates safe pathways for operators and equipment. By placing the post at strategic points—such as the entry to deheading stations, around conveyor turnarounds, or near loading docks—facilities can guide forklifts, pallet jacks, and personnel away from high‑risk zones. The 36‑inch height provides a clear visual marker without obstructing workflow, while the sturdy base withstands repeated collisions from carts and machinery.

Beyond deheading, the bollard is equally effective in general warehouse traffic management, assembly line segregation, and hazardous material containment areas. Its multi‑color exterior enhances visibility under varied lighting conditions, from bright daylight to low‑light warehouse aisles, reducing the likelihood of accidental encroachment. The unit’s compact dimensions allow it to be positioned in narrow aisles and tight corners where larger safety barriers would be impractical.

Maintenance requirements are minimal; periodic cleaning with mild detergent keeps the surface free of dust and grime, preserving its visual impact. For facilities that require compliance with OSHA or other safety regulations, the bollard can be integrated into documented safety plans, providing a tangible element that auditors can inspect and verify.

Because the bollard is surface‑mounted, relocation is possible when layout changes occur. The mounting hardware can be removed and re‑installed, allowing the safety system to evolve alongside production processes without the need for costly replacements.

FAQ

What is the recommended mounting surface for this bollard?

The bollard is designed for solid, load‑bearing surfaces such as concrete floors, steel plates, or reinforced wood. Using the supplied hardware, it can be securely anchored to any of these substrates.

Can the bollard be painted to match my facility’s color scheme?

Yes, the blend material accepts industrial‑grade paints. We recommend cleaning the surface thoroughly and applying a primer before using a compatible paint to maintain durability.

Is the bollard suitable for outdoor use?

While primarily intended for indoor industrial environments, the material’s corrosion‑resistant properties allow limited outdoor exposure. For prolonged outdoor use, consider additional protective coatings.

How does the warranty work if the bollard is damaged during installation?

The one‑year warranty covers manufacturing defects only. Damage caused by improper installation is not covered, so we advise following the installation guide or consulting our support team for assistance.

What is the load capacity of the bollard?

The bollard can withstand impacts equivalent to a 150‑pound load applied directly to its top surface, making it suitable for typical forklift and cart traffic in industrial settings.
