Product Details

MH reflective caution tape is a 5cm-wide high-visibility safety webbing woven on a polyester substrate with a retroreflective surface that redirects light back toward its source.

The tape delivers a retroreflective coefficient of 20-450 cd/lux.m2, keeping workers and equipment visible under vehicle headlights and in low-light conditions. It is produced in silver and fluorescent yellow, orange and red, and is engineered to hold its brightness through repeated wear, laundering and sunlight, with strong abrasion resistance and only minimal reflectivity loss after prolonged UV exposure.

MH weaves the tape on polyester, T/C, oxford, fabric and flame-retardant substrates and can tailor the width, color and retroreflectivity to a buyer's specification, making it suited to traffic signs, vehicles, workwear, helmets and outdoor safety gear.

Feature: Using unique hot composite materials, it features strong adhesive properties and can be used on regular cement surfaces. The reflective film has a high reflectivity, shining bright yellow under night lights, offering good warning effects. The thickened PVC base material can withstand high tensile forces and will not deform easily when pulled.

Reflective Tape Technical Index

Parameter

Description

Typical Value/Standard

Retroreflectivity (RA, cd/lx/m²)

Measures brightness at night—higher values indicate stronger reflection.

- Standard: ≥50 (EN ISO 20471)
- High-Intensity: ≥300 (ANSI 107)

Observation Angle

Reflectivity decreases as the light source angle increases (e.g., 30° or 45°).

Tested at 0° (direct), 30°, and 45° angles.

Color & Colorfastness

Reflective colors (silver, fluorescent yellow/orange/red) and fade resistance.

AATCC or ISO 105-B02 colorfastness tests.

Wash Resistance

Retroreflectivity retention after washing.

≥70% after 50 washes (EN ISO 6330).

Abrasion Resistance

Wear resistance (e.g., Martindale test).

≥10,000 cycles (ASTM D4966).

Temperature Range

Operational limits.

-30°C to 70°C (no cracking or delamination).

UV Resistance

Performance retention under sunlight.

≤10% reflectivity loss after 500h QUV.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is reflective tape?

A: Reflective tape is a kind of adhesive tape that is designed to reflect light back to its source. It's made with tiny glass beads or prismatic elements embedded in the tape's surface, making it highly visible under direct light, such as car headlights at night.

Q: Where can reflective tape be used?

A: Reflective tape is versatile and can be used in various settings including on vehicles, bicycles, clothing, helmets, signs, and safety equipment. It's particularly useful for enhancing visibility and safety in low-light conditions.

Q: How does reflective tape work?

A: Reflective tape works by utilizing the principle of retroreflection. When light hits the tape, the embedded glass beads or microprismatic elements redirect the light back towards its source with minimal scattering. This makes the tape appear to glow brightly when illuminated, even from a distance.

Q: Is reflective tape waterproof?

A: Many types of reflective tape are designed to be waterproof and weather-resistant, making them suitable for outdoor use. However, it's important to check the specifications of the tape you're purchasing to ensure it meets your needs.

Q: How do I apply reflective tape?

A: To apply reflective tape, first clean the surface where you'll be applying the tape to remove any dirt or grease. Cut the tape to the desired length. Peel off the backing to expose the adhesive, then carefully place the tape on the surface. Apply pressure to ensure it's firmly attached and free of air bubbles.
