Fish Tail End
ARMFISH-GALV
When building Armco barriers, your barrier ends also need to be considered. For non-pedestrian applications, fish tail ends provide additional safety features as the raw edge of the barrier is covered and contained. In the event of a scrape or collision, fish tail barriers minimise damage to vehicles or goods. Our fish tail ends are compatible with any Armco barrier system and are galvanised to BS EN 1461 standards, meaning they’ll last just as long as any other element of your Armco barrier.

What Are The Benefits Of Using Fish Tail Ends?
A fish tail end is a galvanised steel barrier used to round off road safety barriers such as armco barriers or other types of guardrails. Named for its distinctive appearance resembling a fish’s tail, it serves as a key component in road safety measures, offering safe ends to potentially hazardous barriers and reducing the risk of vehicular accidents.
These are commonly found in car parks as a way to protect pedestrians or vehicles that pass by. As the end of the barrier is rounded off, it looks aesthetically pleasing and helps keep pedestrians safe from any scrapes or collisions.
What Are The Benefits Of Using Fish Tail Ends?
There are several significant benefits to using a Fish Tail End as part of your safety measures:
Improved Safety
Fish Tail Ends are designed to reduce the severity of crashes by absorbing the impact and guiding the vehicle away from the Armco beam or barrier. This helps to prevent vehicles from colliding with the end of the guardrail, as this can cause severe damage and injuries.
High Visibility
A barrier fishtail end has a unique shape that is functional and makes the termination point of barriers easily visible to drivers, helping to aid in accident prevention.
Durability
Galvanised to BS EN 1461 standards, Fish Tail Ends are highly resistant to weather conditions, rust, and corrosion, making them a long-lasting solution.
Ease of Installation
Fish Tail Ends are designed for simple and quick installation, minimising disruption on your site.
Cost-Effective
Given their durability and minimal maintenance needs, Fish Tail Ends represent a cost-effective safety solution in the long term.
