Description

Heskins Glass Bead DOT-Approved Reflective Tape is used by European manufacturers for trailers and vehicles intended for operation in the USA.

DOT tape reflects lights back at the source in a wide cone, increasing visibility and therefore safety, reducing the chance of collision in any lighting condition. This is achieved by applying a microscopic glass bead to the surface in a honeycomb-shaped grid, resulting in an impact proof, UV stable reflective material that will apply to any clean, dry surface such as aluminium, steel and fibreglass with its self-adhesive base.

H6602 is regulated by the FMCSA, which certifies use of DOT (US Federal Department Of Transportation) tape for North & South America as well as the Middle-East.

For non-DOT approved tape, see Heskins Microprismatic Tape (EGP reflective tape) for a high-reflective material for use on static and moving objects.

See the Heskins range of accessories for additional help during application, pro-longing the life of anti-slip tapes and line markings. The range consists of primers, edge fixing, mallets, rollers etc.
