R100 High Intensity Grade Reflective Tapes


High Intensity Grade Reflective Sheeting is a high-quality, durable micro-prismatic retro reflective material. Its unique prismatic construction provides an extra high level of reflectivity for demanding traffic control situations. Meets applicable requirements for high intensity grade sheeting applications for Types III and IV retro reflective sheeting as set forth in ASTM D 4956.

    A The hour pairs of chromaticity coordinates determine the acceptable color in terms of the CIE 1931 Standard Colormetric System measured with Standard Illuminant D65.

    B The saturation limit of green and blue may extend to the border of the CIE chromaticity locus for spectral colors.
