3M 7000129428 Diamond Grade Conspicuity Marking Fra Yellow

Product Description

The 3M 7000129428 is a Diamond Grade conspicuity marking tape designed for high-visibility safety marking on school buses and other commercial vehicles. Featuring a prismatic lens construction, it delivers superior retroreflectivity compared to standard engineering or high-intensity grades. The tape uses a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing with a clear poly liner, making field application straightforward. Each strip measures 4 inches wide by 18 inches long in FRA Yellow, a color specified for emergency exit and perimeter marking on school buses. Licensed HVAC and vehicle upfit technicians, fleet maintenance crews, and school bus service professionals are the primary installers.

This conspicuity tape is applied to the side and rear perimeter of school buses, as well as emergency exit locations, to improve vehicle detection and visibility in low-light or adverse weather conditions. It meets Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and school bus safety marking requirements. The 4-inch by 18-inch strip format is suited for both new vehicle outfitting and periodic re-marking maintenance at fleet service facilities.
