Rubber Speed Humps
Managing vehicle speeds in high-traffic areas is critical not only to protect pedestrians but also to safeguard structures. Rubber speed humps are made from recycled and virgin rubber providing an optimal balance of durability and cost. Designed to withstand the weight of vehicles, speed humps are perfect for deployment on roads, facility entrances and throughways, construction zones, parking areas, industrial yards, and any other location that requires vehicles to slow down for safety.
The primary function of rubber speed humps is to reduce the speed of vehicles by providing a smooth yet effective deceleration point. A vehicle that enters area too fast can be a safety hazard, risking pedestrian injury and/or property damage. Rubber speed humps absorb impact while dispersing stress evenly across the hump. The rubber construction minimizes wear and tear on both the hump and the vehicle. This is an improvement as compared to a concrete or asphalt speed bump that if hit by a vehicle traveling too fast can badly jolt and damage the vehicle.
Rubber speed humps are easy to install and removable. Installation is achieved using basic tools and they can be put into service quickly - traits that are highly valued since time is money. Unlike permanent speed humps made of concrete or asphalt, rubber speed humps can be relocated or removed without significant additional costs, making them an adaptable solution for locations that may need to be reconfigured. Whether it’s a temporary installation during a facility upgrades or a permanent fix for ongoing safety management, speed humps are an attractive and cost-effective solution.
Incorporating rubber speed humps into your traffic management plan translated to increased operational efficiency. Every installation is designed to provide a measurable reduction in average vehicle speeds while contributing to an overall safer environment. For facilities that operate heavy equipment alongside regular vehicles, the installation of rubber speed humps is a proactive step toward risk management. With HOF Equipment Company’s rubber speed humps, you are investing in a built to last solution.
Vestil Speed Bumps
Safety and consistency are the cornerstones of traffic control solutions. Rubber speed bumps are available in a diverse range of specifications. To ensure a tailored fit for various applications, we offer a product line that includes both compact models and larger, extendable units.
HOF Equipment Company carries Vestil speed bumps. The Vestil-SBRY-72 series rubber speed bumps are available in two distinct variants: the Vestil-SBRY-72-C and the Vestil SBRY-72-A models. These units are engineered to offer a reduced profile without sacrificing functionality, making them perfect for tighter areas where vehicles must decelerate. These Vestil speed bumps are mounted securely with specialized hardware, which is denoted by the “C” and “A” suffixes. “C” suffix units included mounting hardware for concrete while “A” suffix units include mounting hardware for asphalt.
The Vestil RSH series encompasses both the Vestil-RSH-108-24 and Vestil-RSH-120-36 models. The Vestil-RSH-108-24 comes in both “C” and “A” variants (concrete and asphalt). These models are 110-3/4” long and for use in wider roads and throughways, though it should be noted the length can easily be reduced or increased by removing or adding middle sections. Middle sections fit together by tongue and groove making them simple to manage. The largest Vestil rubber speed bumps are in the Vestil-RSH-120-36 series. A prime example is the Vestil RSH-120-36-C that comes in at an impressive 118-11/16” long but can be easily made longer or short by adding or subtracting middle sections. Even at their larger size, pricing remains competitive for the RSH-120 models.

he Vestil RSH models incorporate UV stabilizers into the rubber to help ensure that the product retains its physical integrity and aesthetic appeal over time. Rubber being the main component makes these speed bumps ideal for both indoor applications and harsh outdoor environments. The versatility of rubber speed bumps is one of the many reasons why they have become a preferred choice for both performance and safety.
All Vestil speed bumps include high visibility yellow striping for an immediate visual cue to drivers to slow down prior to going over the bump. Striping that is painted on a concrete or asphalt speed bump wears off over time making the speed bump difficult for drivers to see. The high visibility yellow striping on rubber speed bumps is less prone to wearing off. When comparing Vestil speed bump models, it becomes clear that rubber speed bumps and rubber speed humps are basically the same thing with nuanced differences between models that allow buyers to choose the right solution for any particular application

The conversation around traffic control devices involves the terms "rubber speed humps" and "rubber speed bumps." Although these terms may appear to denote different products, they are basically interchangeable. Both are crafted to get drivers to slow down, thereby reducing the risk of accidents that could involve pedestrian injury or property damage. HOF Equipment Company is committed to offering products that have undergone rigorous manufacturing standards that ensure that every rubber speed hump delivers the same level of performance.
A major advantage of rubber speed bumps that deserves more discussion is their installation simplicity. Speed humps and speed bumps are designed for simple modular installation. Middle sections and end caps go together by tongue and groove fitment to form the speed bump. The speed bump is then attached to the concrete or asphalt with the correct included hardware. Unlike permanent pavement speed bumps, they can be installed quickly and removed or relocated as needed. For locations with dynamic operations—such as sites that regularly see changes in traffic patterns due to ongoing construction or reconfiguration – the easy removability of rubber speed humps provides an big advantage.
When it comes to using rubber speed control products at facilities, they are part of a broader commitment to operational flexibility and safety. These safety products contribute to a holistic risk management strategy and combining them with signage and speed monitoring creates a culture of safety at the facility. The pro-active use of speed control devices is an investment in not just physical infrastructure but also in the well-being of your workforce, thereby aiding in the reduction of onsite accidents and related insurance claims.
