The Sentry Protection Products CS3342-16S Column Sentry is a heavy-duty protective collar designed to shield square, H-, or round-column installations from forklift impacts and related damage. This model features a 16" x 16" square opening and a 33" outer diameter with a 42" overall height, making it suitable for protecting columns up to 16" in any cross-section. The unit is molded from low-density polyethylene and ships as a two-piece assembly that wraps around the column and is strapped together with included nylon straps, allowing straightforward installation without disassembly of the surrounding structure.
Key construction details include an integrated air chamber for impact energy management, anchor bolt slots for secure anchoring, and materials that are weatherproof, chemical resistant, and UV stabilized. These characteristics help the protector withstand harsh environments common in warehouses and facilities, maintaining visibility and integrity over time. The large, high-visibility yellow color aids in conspicuity to forklift operators and pedestrians, supporting safer navigation near columns.
Typical use scenarios involve protecting permanent or semi-permanent columns in warehouses, manufacturing floors, and loading areas where forklift traffic is prevalent. The protector is designed to install around existing columns without the need for heavy tools or major structural modifications. When planning installation, consider that it accommodates square, H-, or round column shapes up to 16" in diameter and uses two halves strapped together for a secure fit. The product ships as a single unit and weighs approximately 75 lbs, with a freight class that may affect shipping costs and handling.
