3M Reflective tape

3M reflective tapes on mine site vehicles, trucks and equipment provides 24 hour visibility and safety.

High visibility retroreflective vehicle safety markings are an important element in the reduction of incident rates both on-site and while travelling on public roads.

Standards and classifications

We stock 3M products which exceed the requirements of the Australian Standard AS/NZS 1906.1:2007. Also in stock is a range which meet the European Union’s UN/ECE104 regulation. UN/ECE104 compliant products have markings which guarantee you of the highest performance product available. On some mine sites and civil construction sites these markings are compulsory.

Fluorescent colours

3M’s fluorescent tape products provide 24 hour visibility. Fluorescent tapes provide high visibility during daylight and especially at dawn – dusk. They also have equally high night time reflectivity as non fluorescent coloured tapes.

The importance of Edge Sealing

Most Class 1, 1A and 1W products are manufactured using prismatic technology. Edge sealing, or the use of a pre-edge sealed product, protects against the wear and tear from dirt and grime, also when subject to high pressure cleaning at acute angles.

For maximum product life, the use of edge sealed tapes is recommended in harsh environments.

Application

Correct surface preparation and application is the most important factor with adhesives. A ‘3M User Guide’ is provided with all reflective tapes and includes information on the application as well as care and maintenance to ensure you get the best durability and performance.
