1-inch ORALITE V92 High-Intensity Reflective Tape - is available in 6 standard colors. These tapes utilize internal cube-corner microprisms to provide a brilliant reflection. They provides exceptional brightness even when viewed at angles low to their surface. Daybright V92 has a distinctive triangular weld pattern and is tough, yet flexible enough to wrap around bicycle tubing. Thickness is 5 mils. They carry a 5-year warranty and are also fire resistant - meeting NFPA standards for fire resistance (500ºF for 5 minutes without melting, dripping, or igniting). Reflected brightness depends on color, and ranges from 2.7 to 4.4 times that of typical engineering grade reflective material. That is why we recommmend this tape for color-code fire hydrants to their flow rates (see NFPA color code to left). It is also great for use on emergency vehicles, respirator tanks, motorcycles, bicycles, gates, and bollards. Silver-white even works with infra-red range finders. The order of decreasing brightness is silver, yellow, orange, red, green, and blue. Cobb County, GA requires use of 1" orange on certain fire hydrants. For V92 Daybright specifications, click HERE.
