Product Information

Reflective sheeting helps ensure road traffic signs are visible in the dark to improve motorist safety. We offer retroreflective sheeting rolls in several colors, patterns, and widths. Choose between engineering grade, high intensity grade, and diamond grade reflective sheeting options.

These high visibility, durable products resist fading and are suitable for all weather conditions. Tape and sheeting materials are easy to cut to length for application on a variety of traffic control device substrates. Apply striped tapes to specialty plastic sheets then nail or screw to wood boards as necessary. Non-reflective caution tape is an essential for construction sites and general safety applications.

How do different grade reflective sheeting materials compare?

• Engineering Grade (EG) is the most basic sheeting, with the least amount of reflectivity - about 500 feet for night time visibility. It also has the shortest service life of around 5 years. It typically meets ASTM D4956 Type 1 standards and is an enclosed lens film using glass beads or prismatic optical technology. Engineer grade prismatic sheeting uses are typically for non-critical street and road signs. This includes parking or way-finding traffic control signs.
  
  
• High Intensity Prismatic (HI) is the middle performer and has a lifespan of approximately 10 years. It returns approximately 32% of light back to its source with visibility from about 1,000 feet. Its durable topcoat protects against scratches and abrasion. The high intensity prismatic reflective sheeting series meet ASTM requirements for D4956-09 Type III and Type IV, as well as ASTM 4956-07 Type X. Micro prismatic lens reflective sheeting uses include road signs, barriers and delineators.
  
  
• Diamond Grade (DG) returns the most amount of light, with about 60% retroreflectivity. It offers the best performance in both day and night conditions with visibility up to 1,600 feet. This high durability material lasts around 12 years. Full cube prismatic reflective sheeting meets specifications for ASTM Type VII, Type VIII and Type IX standards. It is ideal sheeting for highway signage, as well as construction, pedestrian, and school zones uses.

State DOT's specify durability for traffic control device and sign sheeting performance. Always verify which traffic sign retroreflective material meets your local requirements.

Striped barricade sheeting

Our pressure sensitive adhesive barricade sheeting comes in 300' rolls of either 8" or 12" widths. Choose between left or right stripe patterns with 4" or 6" widths. We offer striped sheeting in engineer grade, high intensity grade or diamond grade reflectivity. This retroreflective sheeting is suitable for use on type I, type I and type III barricades.

Channelizer drum and posts reflective sheeting

These solid orange or white reflective sheeting products come in 150' rolls of 4" and 6" widths. It is ideal for channelizer drum, delineators or other reflective sign resheeting repairs. This retroreflective sheeting tape adheres to most clean and dry surfaces. Available in engineer grade, high intensity and diamond grades for excellent day or night visibility.

High retroreflectivity conspicuity tape

Our conspicuity tape rolls with alternating red and white stripes measure 2’’ wide by 150’ long. This high intensity prismatic reflective sheeting tape is weatherproof and self-adhesive. A transparent acrylic protective overlay film protects the micro prismatic lens against scratches.

Easy to handle and apply, this high visibility flexible sticker tape resists chipping and cracking. Use conspicuity tape on the edges of trucks, trailers, and other large vehicles to increase visibility and safety.

Yellow caution tape

These 1,000 foot rolls of non-reflective, non-adhesive yellow caution tape are 3 inches wide. This re-useable yellow tape repeats "CAUTION" in bold black lettering for high visibility contrast.

An essential item for any work zone, caution tape is ideal for a variety of indoor and outdoor uses. The acrylic plastic has a high tensile strength and remains flexible even in cold temperatures. Tie caution tape around traffic delineators or orange cones at construction sites to restrict access.
