Atlas Retention sockets are a secure foundation mechanism that allows for the quick and easy replacement of poles and posts throughout their lifetime, without re-excavation every time.
100% stainless steel construction. Pole diameters available: 76, 89, 115, 140, 168 mm. Flexible planting depths. Possibility of custom sizes made to order, please get in touch.
The Atlas Retention socket features a clamping mechanism that is kinder towards passively safe posts (i.e. Jerol, Lattix, or Sapa poles) typically made out of softer material as opposed to traditional traffic signal posts and poles.
The nature of passively safe structures makes the Atlas Retention Socket the ideal companion for passively safe poles that need to be replaced quickly and efficiently.
Used in junction with a physical electrical disconnections system such as PolePlugs, Atlas Retention sockets provide a complete passively safe solution.
Benefits of the Atlas Retention Socket: the pole foundation remains undamaged following a knock down of the pole. Installation of a traffic signal pole or sign / lighting column does not take significantly longer with a retention socket. However, the ease and speed of replacement following a collision can save a huge amount of cost.
