K8 (M40) crash rated bollards are high-security vehicle barriers designed to stop a 7,200 kg vehicle travelling at 64 km/h with controlled penetration. These bollards are commonly used for embassies, defense facilities, airports, industrial plants, and critical infrastructure projects.
The K-rating defines the vehicle impact speed the bollard can withstand. K4 (M30) stops a vehicle at 48 km/h, K8 (M40) at 64 km/h, and K12 (M50) at 80 km/h. Higher ratings provide greater protection for high-threat environments.
Automatic retractable bollards are hydraulic rising bollards that move up and down automatically to allow or restrict vehicle access. They are ideal for active vehicle lanes where authorized entry is required while maintaining high perimeter security.
The K8 automatic bollard operates within approximately 3–5 seconds during normal operation. Emergency fast operation modes are also available for rapid lockdown scenarios in sensitive security areas.
