  • Patent number: 8973903
    Abstract: Bendable wire pole (1) intended to fixate the wires in a wire-rope safety fence, comprising at least two curved elongated pole sections (2) connected to each other so that at least an intermediate cavity (4) is formed between the sections (2), whose sections (2) are held together by at least one cohesive body (12). The unique feature of the present bendable wire pole (1) is that it includes at least one intermediate elongated pole section (3) positioned between the curved sections (2), whose sections (2) and (3) in their upper are provided with at least one groove (5) in which wires are designed to be inserted. The pole (1) further comprises at least one spacer unit (6), intended to be connected to the wires and the pole (1), with which the wires are positioned in the vertical and horizontal directions relative to the pole (1).
