The SoftStop® System is a tangent, single-sided, energy absorbing, redirective and gating end terminal. The SoftStop® System is tested to MASH 2016 Test Level 3 criteria and may be used in Test Level 1, Test Level 2, and Test Level 3 applications.
 
During head-on impacts within MASH criteria, the SoftStop® System is designed to dissipate energy by the head traveling down the anchored W-Beam panels. During length-of-need side impacts within MASH criteria, the SoftStop® System is designed to contain and redirect the impacting vehicle.
 
Features:
The front anchorage is designed to allow the W-Beam guardrail panels to remain anchored during end-on impacts within MASH criteria.
Narrow head design helps minimize nuisance impacts from vehicles and maintenance operations, such as mowing and snow removal.
