The Scorpion II Truck Mounted Attenuator is the world’s first MASH Tested, Passed, and Eligible Truck Mounted Attenuator. This attenuator is hydraulically powered, designed to optimize both stationary and mobile construction zones, and the results don’t lie. 17 years since its launch, the Scorpion TMA has endured more than 2000 documented impacts and saved thousands of lives. Scorpion II TMA is compatible with the Doctor Air Brake® automatic braking system. This locks the host truck’s brakes instantly upon impact, offering greater protection to the truck’s driver, as well as the impacting vehicle’s occupants and any workers or bystanders at the crash site.
The Scorpion II TMA’s patented design consists of strut and cartridge sections linked together on a support frame. Each energy-absorbing cushion has an aluminum honeycomb core that is enclosed by an aluminum powder-coated box module that provides maximum durability and longevity. In addition, the Scorpion II TMA boasts the shortest overall length of any MASH eligible truck mounted attenuator on the market along with the widest range of host truck vehicle weights of any MASH tested and eligible truck mounted attenuator currently on the market.
In addition, Carolina Traffic Devices offers trucks pre-mounted with the Scorpion II, a turnkey solution for your needs with a message board or arrow sign included.
