Description

A yellow coloured, two way, non depressible reflective road stud by 3M. Made from a high impact polycarbonate resin with one red and one amber polycarbonate lens that have a ceramic and polymeric protective coating. The stud is designed with inner ribbing to dissipate tyre impact, increase strength and reduce damage. It has finger grips on either side to aid application and is applied to the surface of the road with hot melt bitumen adhesive. On a motorway, amber studs are used to indicate the central reservation or the inner edge of an exit ramp. On a one way road, they are used to indicate the right-hand side of the carriageway, which should not be crossed.
