NBI's long anticipated, DoS Crash Tested & Certified, NMSB XII Drop Arm Crash Beam barrier system has arrived!

NBI's NMSB XII revolutionizes Drop Arm Crash Beam design. The highest security crash beam available worldwide, the NMSB XII has received the DoS K12/L3 or 15,000 lbs. at 50 mph crash certification with remarkable results. The NMSB XII can be hydraulically and/or manually, counter-balance operated.

NBI fortified, "sling-shot" concept Drop Arm barrier system design, are an ideal stopping mechanism for maximum perimeter security. After crash impact, the test vehicle was propelled backwards up to 6 ft.

The US State Department representative on site to witness and certify the test results stated that the test was one of the most remarkable DoS had ever witnessed. The successful test further demonstrates Nasatka Barrier's dedication to continued product innovation and leadership in crash barrier engineering and quality. Nasatka offers other engineer rated Drop Arm Crash Beam barrier systems. The NMSB XIIA1 Drop Arm (crash-beam) barrier is for intermediate-threat security facilities. The NMSB XIIA1 is a choice addition for commercial application. The NMSB XIIa1 is crash tested and engineer rated meeting DoS K4/L3 standards to stop a 15,000-pound vehicle traveling at 30 mph.

Drop Arm barrier operation overcomes terrain issues due to snowplows or other roadway obstacles. Its optimal operation as a "sally-port" system to operate in unison with NBI's
steel-plate or bollard barriers creates a virtually impenetrable, stoppage and trapping configuration. The standard barrier opening lengths range from 12'-16', 16'-19', and 20'-22'. In the down and secure position the top of the barrier is 33" (83.8 cm) above the road surface. Hot-dip galvanized for years of service. EPA approved self-contained attached housing unit. Drop Arms lower cycle / hour operating systems are best suited for minimal vehicle-traffic, access-control scenarios. Standard barrier deployment time is 8-15 seconds per cycle depending on varying barrier size. Vertical or horizontal open/close options as well as custom sizes and configurations are available.
