3M 7010317862 School Bus Prismatic Marking 1.5in X 50yd Yellow

Product Description

The 3M 7010317862 is a Diamond Grade flexible microprismatic retroreflective marking designed to increase the visibility of school buses to oncoming drivers. Part of the Series 973 lineup, this yellow marking tape features an aggressive pressure-sensitive adhesive backing that bonds to the curved and flexible surfaces common on school bus body panels. The roll measures 1.5 inches wide by 50 yards in length, providing substantial coverage per roll. It meets and exceeds FMVSS 217, FMVSS 131, and CSA D250 standards, making it suitable for both U.S. and Canadian school transportation compliance requirements. Installation is typically handled by fleet maintenance technicians or body shop professionals.

This marking tape is used in school bus fleet maintenance and new bus outfitting applications. It is intended for exterior application on school bus bodies where retroreflective conspicuity markings are required by federal and state transportation regulations. The continuous 50-yard roll format allows technicians to cut lengths as needed for long body stripe runs, while the flexible construction conforms to contoured surfaces without lifting or creasing. It is sold by the roll with a minimum order quantity of one roll.
