Choosing a Cone Height
Height is the first decision. Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual sets minimum cone heights by road type and speed limit, so take the figure from your approved traffic management plan before you order. On site roads, car parks and pedestrian areas a 450mm or 460mm cone is lighter to carry and stack, while 750mm and 1m cones give more height and sleeve area for highway work. Our complete guide to traffic cones used in the UK covers sizes in more detail.
| Cone | Height | Construction | Approx. weight | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mastercone 450mm | 450mm | Two-piece | 2.25kg | BSI Kitemarked to BS EN 13422, Starlux sleeve |
| Melba 46 | 460mm | One-piece | 2.20kg | 100% recycled material |
| Melba 75 | 750mm | One-piece | 4.00kg | 100% recycled material |
| Starlite 750mm | 750mm | Two-piece | 4.15kg | BSI Kitemarked to BS EN 13422, Starlux sleeve |
| Starlite 1000mm | 1000mm | Two-piece | 6.50kg | BSI Kitemarked to BS EN 13422, Starlux sleeve |
One-Piece or Two-Piece Cones
Melba one-piece cones are moulded as a single body from 100% recycled material, with no separate base to lose. The body flexes when struck rather than cracking, which suits car parks, compounds and busy site routes. Two-piece cones have a separate top and base, so when a top cracks or a base splits you replace only that part. The Starlite top is blow-moulded virgin HDPE and the Mastercone centre is LDPE and HDPE combined; both sit on a 100% recycled PVC base with an anti-slip profile and carry a Starlux prismatic sleeve as standard.
Bases can be embossed with your logo or supplied in a bespoke colour, with a minimum of one full pallet for embossing. One-piece and two-piece parts are not interchangeable.
Coloured, Overhead Cable and No Waiting Cones
- Coloured cones: the Starlite 750mm also comes in yellow, blue and green for marking zones on site. Our guide to coloured traffic cones and their meaning in the UK explains how each colour is used.
- Overhead cables: the Mastercone 750mm Danger Overhead Cables cone pairs a blue body with a yellow reflective sleeve carrying a lightning bolt symbol. The same sleeve is sold separately for 750mm cones.
- No waiting cones: a yellow one-piece circular cone, a 500mm three-sided one-piece cone weighing 3.85kg and a 530mm three-sided two-piece cone weighing 3.20kg. The three-sided cones show the no waiting symbol on all three faces, so they do not need turning towards traffic.
Lamps, Sleeves and Cone Accessories
- Warning lamps: the Maxilite LED, with a red or orange lens, has a swivel head giving 360° vision and photocell operation in static or flashing mode. It bolts to barriers or fits a cone with the Maxilite cone bracket, which also suits the Microlite. Both lamps run on the 6 volt chloride battery, sold separately.
- Replacement sleeves: Starlux reflective sleeves for 450mm, 750mm and 1000mm cones keep the cone body in service when a sleeve wears.
- Skipper unit: the Orange Skipper Unit sits on top of a cone and holds 9m of retractable tape in red and white or black and yellow.
- Demarcation poles: telescopic poles extend from 1100mm to 2200mm between cones.
- Chain barrier: the chain barrier system uses 25m lengths of 8mm chain in red and white or yellow and black, with support posts and a 3kg base.
Where you need a continuous physical line, look at our Chapter 8 and waterfilled barriers or pedestrian barriers.
