DOT Retroreflective Tape - 10 Year Warranty | RT10DOT

Product description:

DOT-Approved Reflective Tape for Commercial Trucks, Trailers & Heavy-Duty Vehicles

REF DOT-C2 Daybright is a high-performance reflective tape designed to improve vehicle visibility and meet DOT-C2 requirements under NHTSA 49 CFR 571.108. It’s available in 10-year durability and built for long-term outdoor use.

Manufactured by Orafol (formerly Reflexite, now rebranded as Oralite®), this tape uses microprismatic elements bonded to a UV-stabilized polyester film. The reflective surface is aluminum-coated for maximum brightness and visibility—even in low light, bad weather, and at night.

Product Applications

• Oralite® Visibly Better ™ Retroreflective conspicuity material is a tough weather and solvent resistant product designed for rugged outdoor use on the sides and rear of trucks, trailers, automobiles, and emergency vehicles to enhance safety on the roadway by improving their visibility.

Product Benefits

• Long-Lasting Protection – Available in 10-year warranty options. Built to withstand dirt, grime, and repeated high-pressure washing.
• Impact-Resistant – Maintains reflectivity even after contact with loading docks, chains, or surface abrasion.
• Crack & Lift Resistant – Made from a tough polyester-based film that resists cracking and edge lifting in rugged environments.
• Ultra-Thin Design – At just 0.008” thick, it resists dirt buildup better than thicker (0.025”) open-cell tapes. No raised edges to snag or tear.
• Single-Ply Construction – Makes for easy application and enhanced abrasion resistance without layers separating over time.
• 100% Adhesion – Unlike competitors, there are no grid lines that trap water or lead to premature adhesive failure.
• Maximum Reflectivity – Delivers up to 1,000 candlepower with outstanding wide-angle visibility—ideal for long-distance and low-light road conditions.
