Grote BD998473 Red Reflector 3 Inches

Product Description

The GROTE BD998473 is a 3-inch diameter red reflector designed for vehicle and trailer visibility applications. Constructed with a steel and acrylic combination, this reflector provides a durable, high-contrast warning presence on the rear, side, or front of commercial and fleet vehicles. The unit is compact and lightweight, making it straightforward to mount in a variety of locations where passive reflectivity is required by DOT and FMCSA visibility regulations. Licensed truck technicians, trailer builders, and fleet maintenance professionals routinely install this type of reflector as part of required lighting and conspicuity packages.

This reflector is suited for use on semi-trailers, box trucks, utility trailers, and other commercial or vocational vehicles that require compliant passive reflective marking. The 3-inch diameter is a standard size for side and rear marker reflector applications. It is appropriate for both new-build trailer outfitting and replacement service on existing vehicles requiring reflector maintenance or DOT compliance restoration.
