Our delineator posts with base provide a reliable and reusable solution for temporary or permanent traffic separation. These posts are ideal for work zones, pedestrian walkways, parking lots, and events where you need to clearly guide vehicles or foot traffic.
Each post is designed to flex upon impact and return to its original position, reducing damage to both the post and vehicles. Bases are available in multiple weights and styles, offering strong stability on various surfaces including asphalt, gravel, and concrete.
Posts feature reflective bands for visibility in low-light conditions and are available in bright, high-contrast colors for daytime effectiveness.
Easy to transport, deploy, and reposition, delineator posts with base are a critical component of any traffic control system. Explore our inventory for professional-grade safety posts that are built to last in demanding environments.

Traffic Delineator Variations

Traffic delineators, (also called "grabber tubes" or "grabber cones") are fairly basic but do have some variations for a variety of use cases. For instance, here are some of the delineator features or variations and why you might select a delineator of this type.

Delineator Posts with Handles: Many delineator posts include a simple handle shape at the top, making it very easy to move the delineator from place to place. These are useful for road construction projects where the traffic safety equipment needs to be moved as construction progresses. 

Free-standing Delineator Posts: Most delineator posts have weighted bases which slide over the delineator post so the delineator can be free-standing. 

Surface-mounted Delineator Post: Some delineator posts can be mounted onto the pavement or ground surface for a more permanent delineator installation.

Traffic Delineator Common Uses

Here are some of the common use cases for delineator posts like these:

1. Road construction: Probably the most common use for delineator posts like these is for securing the perimeter of road construction sites. The use of standard traffic safety orange and white colors make these delineator posts highly visible, instantly signaling the need for increased caution from passing drivers.

2. Maintenance and remodeling: Because these delineator posts are easy to set up and store, they can be very useful for temporary maintenance and remodeling zones.

3. Outdoor events: Again, because of the easy portability as well as the traffic safety colors, these can be useful for indicating parking areas in temporary outdoor event spaces.

4. Parking lots: Similarly, standard parking lots sometimes make use of these delineators to indicate where there are dangerous interruptions in the pavement such as pot holes. 

 

Traffic Delineators: Frequently Asked Questions

 Q: Can you attach signs to the top of delineators?
A: We co not currently sell sign toppers for these delineators

Q: Can you attach chains to these delineators?
A: The handle loop at the top of delineator posts is commonly used to loop plastic chain through, making this delineator into a more complete barrier. 

Q: Are delineator posts stable in the wind?
A: The rubber base of most standard delineators is ~10lbs. This is typically enough to keep the delineator standing, even in wind. 

Q: Can you fill delineator posts with stand?
A: Delineator posts are usually hollow, but are not made to contain sand or water. Instead, the weighted rubber base is used to keep the post in place. 

Q: Are delineator posts stackable?
A: The more cone-shaped delineator posts are stackable.

Q: Are delineator posts hollow?
A: Most delineator posts are made to be hollow.
