Eagle Gasket and Packing 1708OR Column Protector 8 in

Product Description

The EAGLE GASKET AND PACKING 1708OR is an 8-inch column protector designed to guard structural columns and posts from vehicle and equipment impact in industrial, warehouse, and commercial settings. Finished in high-visibility orange with reflective bands, this protector improves jobsite and facility safety by making columns clearly visible to forklift operators, delivery drivers, and other equipment users. At 40 pounds, it is a substantial, durable unit built to absorb and deflect real-world impacts. Installation requires no specialized trade licensing, making it suitable for facility maintenance crews, contractors, and safety managers handling column protection programs.

This column protector is used in warehouses, distribution centers, parking structures, manufacturing floors, and commercial facilities where vehicle traffic operates near structural columns. The orange color and reflective bands provide high-visibility warning day and night, reducing the risk of accidental column strikes that can compromise structural integrity. It is sold individually and fits 8-inch columns.
