Crash boxes
Crash boxes
Crash boxes provide an incredibly high energy absorption capacity. They operate in parallel with the coupler and are usually combined with anti-climb devices to achieve optimal structural collapse, as they are not designed to transfer high vertical and lateral loads.
Product features:
-
Non-reversible energy absorption (must be replaced after use)
-
Not velocity dependent
-
Almost 100% efficiency
-
Absorbs the remaining impact after the initial collision
-
Shape can vary to fit available space
-
The product is used in combination with coupler release/shear bolts to ensure that the coupler is released in a controlled manner and pushes through the towing pocket without affecting the crash boxes or cab structure
