Rediweld Introduce 'MiniSitecop' into the Sitecop Range of Speed Restrictors (Apr 07)

Rediweld has produced the Sitecop & SitecopPlus Speed restrictors

(Speed Ramps) for many years and offer an ideal solution to help reduce speed within a variety of applications.

The Sitecop and SitecopPlus are 70mm high, so to compliment this range Rediweld has now designed a lower, less severe ramp called the ‘MiniSitecop’.

At only 50mm high, ‘MiniSitecop’ is designed to reduce speeds typically to

10 mph while minimizing vehicle noise and ground-borne vibration.

‘MiniSitecop’ may be less severe; it has distinctive high visibility yellow markings that enforce this message of speed reduction and awareness of Site Safety. ‘MiniSitecop’ is 400mm long and available in middle units 500mm wide and matching end units 250mm wide.

The ‘MiniSitecop’ is an addition to Rediweld’s range of Traffic Management and Site Safety products, for more information go to www.rediweld.co.uk.
