New stronger Mantis 80 bollard test success

Following the success of the shallow mount static bollard the Mantis, Heald announces that the new, stronger Mantis 80 bollard has been successfully tested to arrest a 7.5 tonne truck travelling at a speed of 50mph (80kph).

Like its little brother, the Mantis 80 is available with a range of stylish stainless steel covers, allowing architects and designers a much greater degree of freedom to integrate perimeter security with modern buildings and landscaping.

As with all Heald shallow mount security products, the Mantis 80 has an extremely low excavation depth (in this case just 300mm) and requires no additional rebar or precasting of concrete. This makes it one of the simplest, most cost efficient installs available today.

At Heald, the number one priority is always security, and the Mantis 80 is no different. Recently tested by MIRA to stop a 7.5 tonne truck travelling at 50mph, the Mantis 80 not only arrested the vehicle, it also continued to function following the attack.
