When is a rubber base cone necessary?

In exposed windy areas, at live roadworks and where passing vehicles create air wash. Light TPE or PVC cones tip in those conditions, while rubber base models hold position.

Where is the 100 cm cone used?

On open stretches, motorway connections and wide yards that need visibility at distance. Its 5 kg weight raises tipping resistance, at the cost of more careful transport and stacking planning.

Can body and base be replaced separately?

Yes — body and base are separate parts, so only the worn one needs replacing. Over time that costs less than replacing whole cones.

Rubber-Base Cones

Rubber base cones resist tipping in wind and passing traffic thanks to their heavy base. They are listed in 50, 75, 90 and 100 cm, with the 100 cm model weighing 5 kg.

Why a Rubber Base

A rubber base pulls the centre of gravity down and raises resistance to tipping considerably. Being heavier than one-piece PVC or TPE cones, these hold position in live traffic, in wind and where vehicles pass at speed.

The base also absorbs impact, and because body and base are separate parts, either can be replaced on its own, which lowers total cost. The 100 cm, 5 kg model is for open stretches that need visibility at distance.

50 cm rubber base traffic and advertising cone — indoor yards and events
75 cm — urban roadworks and site enclosure
90 cm — open areas needing high visibility
100 cm / 5 kg — maximum visibility and tipping resistance

Use and Transport

Main uses are live roadworks, motorway connections, exposed windy yards and constantly used entry and exit points. For promotional work, printable bodies combine routing with branding.

Because they are heavy, transport and stacking need planning; bodies and bases can be stacked separately to cut freight cost. Our sales team can help with pallet planning for project quantities.
