Why not make the Break-Out in a female to female configuration?
A7. We do! One of our patented products the Retro-Coupler incorporates this concept. Our customers determined that excessive anchor failures resulted when the breakaway device was impacted directly from a vehicle wheel, undercarriage, mower and or plow blade, as a result this device is intended for use only where it is certain the post will be impacted well above grade. It should also be noted that in the event of an impact, a shard of metal would be left projecting above grade; creating a significant pedestrian trip-fall and vehicular safety hazard. These issues restrict the use of this concept for traffic signage.
