11-Inch Red / 7-Inch White Pattern

The decisive specification is the alternating colour layout: 11 inches of red followed by 7 inches of white per strip. This fixed pattern meets standard conspicuity requirements and determines whether the tape matches the marking scheme you need.

18-Mil Thickness With Multi-Surface Adhesion

At 18 mil thick, the microprismatic backing handles outdoor exposure and adheres to a range of substrates. Acrylic adhesive delivers 2.5 lb/in on FRP, 3.0 lb/in on Tedlar and prepainted panels, 3.5 lb/in on aluminum rail, 5.3 lb/in on degreased aluminum and 6.0 lb/in on stainless steel. Surfaces with heavy contamination or low surface energy may not reach these values.
