Traffic Control Products that are used to redirect or reroute pedestrian and drivers are called Traffic cones and delineator posts. Both products are usually made with highly durable and weather-resistant materials like high-density polyethylene, PVC and metal with protective finishing. Both products also feature dense base for stability.
The obvious difference of the two traffic control products is their shapes: traffic cones are cone-like in shape while the delineator posts are cylindrical. Another thing is that traffic cones usually have a top slit which can hold traffic signs. Traffic cones can also be stacked together because of its shape. On the other hand delineator posts usually have retractable strap or connector chain. Because of its more tame shape, delineator posts are usually used for indoor applications. Other delineator posts feature anchor slots for permanent installation, while others allow the user to put sands inside its base for additional stability. Delianeator posts that are made with stainless steel are commonly used in banks, hotels and malls to serve as crowd control system guides for their patrons.
