FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Lindsay Introduces The TAU-M™ MASH Crash Cushion

  The new product is Lindsay’s most significantly redesigned attenuator in two decades

(OMAHA, Neb.) – April 5, 2019 Lindsay Corporation (NYSE: LNN), a leading global manufacturer and distributor of irrigation and infrastructure equipment and technology, is pleased to announce the most significant addition to its lineup of Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware (MASH)-tested crash cushions to date. The TAU-M™ partially reusable crash cushion has passed the complete matrix of TL-3 and TL-2 MASH tests and is now available worldwide. The TAU-M performs to MASH standards when installed in asphalt or concrete making it a superior crash cushion to help shield temporary, work zone and permanent hazards.

As the market has come to expect, an emphasis on quality and competitiveness has been engineered into the system. New elements include;

  • Shortened length;
  • Heavy duty, durable slider panels;
  • The use of free-standing backstops for both concrete and asphalt systems;
  • Shifting the placement of anchor points for easier access;
  • Continued use of non-proprietary transitions for bi-directional traffic applications; 
  • Systems designed for both TL-3 and TL-2 applications; 
  • Upgrade kits to convert NCHRP 350 TAU-II systems into MASH TAU-M systems; and
  • Fully assembled shipping.

As with all of Lindsay Transportation Solutions' MASH systems, the TAU-M comes complete with easy-to-read installation instructions, online installation training courses, mobile-friendly installation videos and a worldwide network of distributor partners along with a staff of field service technicians who are available to assist.
