HDPE Engineering Plastic – Water-filled counterweight ensures rock-solid stability, establishing a robust safety barrier for tracks operating at speeds of 35 km/h.

Short Description:

1000 mm standard module · Flexible deployment with 3 kg under-load capacity; stable and secure positioning with 25 kg water load capacity

Introduction

The fundamental safety threshold on racetracks is often safeguarded by the most unobtrusive installations. A reliable isolation barrier can prevent a serious vehicle collision; precise track separation can mitigate the chain reaction triggered by unexpected incidents. This track water-filled barrier is manufactured from HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) material, offering exceptional impact resistance and weather resistance. Combined with a water-filled counterweight design – it remains lightweight and easy to transport when empty, but once filled with water, each section weighs up to 25 kg, creating a robust separation barrier on the track. Designed for karting and bumper car venues operating at speeds up to 35 km/h, this water-filled barrier effectively absorbs impact energy during vehicle collisions while maintaining its position, providing all-weather safety protection for daily operations.

    Module A: HDPE engineering plastic – impact-resistant and age-resistant, specifically optimized for 35 km/h collision scenarios

    HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) is a mature material used in the outdoor protective facility sector, possessing the following characteristics that are crucial for track operators:

    High impact resistance: Does not fracture under low-speed vehicle collisions; instead, it exhibits flexible energy absorption. For karting vehicle collision scenarios at a speed of 35 km/h, the HDPE material effectively absorbs impact forces, thereby reducing damage to both the guardrail itself and the vehicle.

    Excellent weather resistance: maintains stable physical properties across a temperature range of-20°C to 60°C, withstands intense sunlight, rain, snow, and significant temperature fluctuations.

    Corrosion resistance: Resists corrosion, decay, oil contamination, and chemical cleaning agents; no additional coating or anti-corrosion treatment required.

    Consistent coloration throughout the entire surface: The entire surface is uniformly colored; no discolored underlying material will be exposed even after surface scratching, and the color does not fade over long-term use.

    This means a single purchase enables long-term use – track operators no longer need to frequently replace guardrails nor incur additional manpower or budgetary costs for maintenance.

    Module B: Water Injection Counterweight Design – 35 km/h collision without displacement – guaranteed safety

    This is the core advantage that distinguishes water-based guardrails from fixed guardrails:

    Weight/Block

    Operational Features

    No-load (transportation/storage)

    Can be easily handled by a single person; stacking for space-saving storage.

    After water injection (operational state)

    25kg

    Self-weight increased eightfold; bottom center of gravity remains stable.

    For karting vehicles operating at a speed of 35 km/h, the water-filled guardrail provides sufficient resistance to displacement during a collision. Based on a single 25 kg unit, the total weight when multiple units are connected increases proportionally; the frictional resistance is directly proportional to the total weight. Combined with the wide-base contact surface design at the bottom of the guardrail, this further enhances the friction coefficient with the ground – ensuring that the guardrail remains in place during typical 35 km/h collision scenarios, effectively preventing the vehicle from exiting the track.

    There is no need to drill holes in the ground, install expansion bolts, or damage the track surface; simply arrange the water barriers at the required separation points and fill them with water to complete deployment. When the track layout needs to be changed, the barriers can be easily moved and rearranged after draining the water – offering significantly greater flexibility compared to fixed steel or concrete guardrails.

    Module C: Standard Modular Size – 1000 mm per section; freely combine to create any track layout.

    The single-unit dimensions are 1000 × 210 × 250 mm (length × width × height), complying with industry-standard modular specifications:

    Length of 1000 mm (800 mm after connection) – facilitates the calculation of the total track protection length.

    The 210 mm width occupies minimal space without reducing the effective track width.

    A height of 250 mm is sufficient to shield vehicle tires and the chassis without obstructing the driver's view.

    Multiple water-saving horses can be connected using snap-fit joints to form a continuous protective belt.

    Operators can freely configure the track layout according to specific requirements—such as track geometry, curve curvature, or starting zone arrangement—by combining straight sections with connected curves to achieve safe separation of any track configuration. The overall deployment is flexible and efficient, significantly reducing both site setup and operational costs. The modular design enables rapid assembly and disassembly, facilitating easy adjustment of the track layout based on event-specific needs. The products have passed rigorous quality inspections and feature outstanding wear resistance and impact resistance, ensuring stability even under high-frequency usage. Whether for professional competitions or public entertainment events, they deliver a safe and professional protective experience, making them an ideal choice for enhancing track quality and operational efficiency.

    Daily Maintenance and Precautions

    Cleaning method: Simply rinse with regular water; for stubborn stains, wipe with a neutral cleaner; avoid using strong acids or strong alkalis as solvents.

    Water filling/drainage: Fill the tank with regular tap water up to the specified water level; when winter temperatures drop below 0°C, drain the water inside the tank to prevent freezing and cracking.

    Storage method: When not in use, the units can be stacked (in an empty state), occupying minimal space; they can also be placed flat or sideways when not in use.

    Transportation: Each unit weighs 3 kg in an empty state; large-volume shipments can be made in a single trip, resulting in low logistics costs.

    FAQ

    Q1: After filling the water tank, would a 25 kg, 35 km/h kart really not move when it collides with this object?

    A: When a single-section unit weighing 25 kg is connected in series, the total weight increases exponentially; the frictional resistance is directly proportional to the weight. The water-based bumper features a wide contact surface design, which further enhances the friction coefficient with the ground. For karting vehicles operating at 35 km/h (with a total weight of approximately 150–200 kg including the driver), the water-based bumper can effectively absorb impact energy and maintain relative positional stability upon collision. For higher-speed vehicles, it is recommended to use a double-row arrangement of water-based bumpers on the outer side of critical corners or to select a different model of water-based bumper.

    Q2: When winter temperatures drop below 0°C, could internal icing damage the water tank?

    A: HDPE material inherently possesses certain low-temperature elasticity; however, when the internal water freezes, its volume expands by approximately 9%. Prolonged freezing may cause the water tank wall to deform under compressive stress. During winter shutdown periods or under long-term sub-zero temperature conditions, it is recommended to drain the water from the tank and store it unloaded. After draining, the tank weighs only 3 kg and can be stacked for storage; it should be refilled with water and deployed again in early spring.

    Q3: Are the prices the same for water horses of different colors? Will the colors fade over time?

    A: All colors are priced equally. The HDPE material utilizes a bulk coloring process, ensuring the color is uniformly distributed throughout the material rather than being applied as a surface coating; under long-term outdoor exposure, the color will naturally fade (due to UV aging), but no "peeling" of the paint will occur. Under normal operating conditions, the color retention rate shall not be lower than 80% over a period of 5 years.
