Feature
Sand Base Cone
Advantages
- Greater stability due to the weight
of the sand-filled base.
Stability
- Less likely to be easily swayed by
wind or pushed by road users.
- Resistant to cracking and breaking.
Durability
- Suitable for long-term outdoor use.
Traffic Cone (Weighted Base)
- Weighted base provides increased
stability against wind and external
forces.
- Less susceptible to tipping over due
to the weighted base.
- Durable material with good
resistance to impact.
- Can withstand exposure to UV
radiation without degradation.
- Typically easier to transport and
handle due to the absence of sand
filling.
- Bright color improves visibility for
traffic management.
- Easy to clean and maintain.
Flexibility
- Can be easily relocated or
repositioned.
Visibility
- High-visibility color ensures
visibility in various conditions.
- Minimal maintenance required.
Disadvantages
- Lighter weight may result in less
- Heavier weight may make
stability in windy conditions.
transportation and handling more
difficult.
- May require more effort to relocate
due to the weight of the base.
- Simple installation without the need - Requires less time and effort for
for filling or sealing.
