Tape

Reflective-Tapes istix.png

Retro-Reflective Tape, also known as reflective tape or sheeting, is designed to collect and return light back to its source. Utilizing microscopic glass beads or man-made prisms, this tape effectively focuses and reflects light, making it highly visible from a distance. Whether used voluntarily or mandated by government regulations, Retro-Reflective Tape enhances safety by increasing visibility in low-light conditions. Ideal for maritime, offshore, vehicular, and general safety applications, this durable, high-strength adhesive tape withstands adverse weather conditions, including moisture and heat.

 

Features

  • High Visibility: Reflects light back to its source, enhancing visibility.

  • Durable and High-Strength: Withstands adverse weather conditions.

  • Pressure-Sensitive: Easy to apply and ensures a strong bond.

  • Versatile Reflective Properties: Available in glass bead and prismatic varieties.

  • Color Reflectivity: Transparent colors applied to the surface ensure the reflected light is colored.

 

Applications

  • Walkways: Enhances visibility and safety in pedestrian areas.

  • Ledges: Marks ledges to prevent accidents.

  • Low Hanging Objects or Structures: Makes them more visible to prevent collisions.

  • Clothing: Increases visibility for safety in low-light conditions.

  • Bicycles/Motorcycles: Improves vehicle safety by marking edges.

  • Helmets: Enhances visibility for riders.

  • Warehouse Machinery: Marks machinery for improved safety.

  • Posts and Barriers: Clearly identifies potential hazards.

There are several types of reflective sheeting.  Engineer grade is the most common and is known as a type 1 film.  Super engineer grade is a type 2.  High intensity is the brightest glass bead film and is a type 3.  The first prismatic film is a type 5.  The brightest film is a type 8 and is often called crystal or diamond grade.  We have charts on each of the films below.  Exact intensities will vary by manufacturer but the charts below are a good guide.  Also, please note that the Type 3 High Intensity chart also defines observation and entrance angles.
