The Steel Yielding Terminal Post (SYTP) is an innovative steel post configuration that can be utilized in the ET-Plus, SRT, SoftStop, and TREND 350 family of products. The post is made of standard material with shop-fabricated holes. SYTP is NCHRP Report 350 Test Level 2 and Test Level 3 compliant.

We offer a retrofit option to replace CRT wood posts in tube sleeves with the SYTP. 

A high density polyethylene (HDPE) Spacer Block in combination with a W6 x 8.5lb (W150 x 13) SYTP can replace broken CRT wood post in an existing 8" x 6" (203 mm x 152 mm) tube sleeve. The retrofit option allows for easier maintenance after impact and eliminates removal problems associated with wood post remnants in steel sleeves. This innovative post option is also available for new installations as well.
