3M 983 DIAMOND GRADE VEHICLE CONSPICUITY TAPE: This highly reflective (TYPE V) adhesive tape is designed for all kinds of trucks (including fire trucks), EMS vehicles, school buses, trailers, bollards, and barriers. In daytime the colors are vivid. In darkness the reflections are brilliant. 3M 983 diamond grade tapes have an acrylic and polycarbonate construction designed to stand up to the rigors of the road and improve the visibility of vehicles and trailers to approaching drivers. 3M conspicuity tapes are six times brighter than conventional markings, reflect at angles approaching 90 degrees, and are durable and non-corroding. Federal regulations require semi-trailers exceeding 10,000 lbs. GVWR to have alternating red and white DOT-C2 approved 2-inch width conspicuity tape applied along at least 50% of their lengths and entirely across their back ends. 3M 983 tape is also widely used on fire trucks, construction trailers, horse trailers, and RVs. 3M 983 conspicuity tapes are 14 to 18 mils in thickness (1 mil = 1/1000"), are edge-sealed, and are warranted for 10 years.
