Ceramic Road Studs for Road Safety Applications
Economic Metal Road Stud for Road Safety Applications
Economic metal road stud for road marking and traffic safety, providing durable lane guidance for highways and urban roads. It features a single-sided reflective prism sheet within a lighter, optimized metal shell to reduce material costs. Specifically engineered for outer road shoulders and lane boundary marking where only unidirectional inner-lane reflection is required, making it the premier choice for budget-conscious municipal infrastructure projects.
Body Material: Lightweight die-cast aluminum alloy (optimized thin-wall casting process reduces aluminum usage to lower unit costs).
Reflective Configuration: Unidirectional (single-sided micro-prism reflective module; rear side has no reflector).
Standard Dimensions: 100 × 100 × 18 mm (Overall height profile lower than standard studs; protrusion ≤ 22 mm).
Unit Weight: Approx. 110 g (Significantly lighter than standard 140–220 g bidirectional aluminum studs).
Compressive Load Rating: 25 Tons (Suitable for mixed light and heavy traffic along road shoulders).
Reflective Visibility Distance: ≥ 280 m on dry roads; ≥ 130 m in rainy conditions.
Reflector Colors: White, Yellow, Red.
Installation Options:
Glue-on Type: Flat-bottom design without an anchor shank, fixed with epoxy adhesive.
Short Shank Type: Equipped with a shortened metal anchor pin, optimized for shallow drilling along low-volume roadsides.
Outstanding Cost Performance: Lightweight die-cast engineering reduces aluminum raw material consumption by 30%. Wholesale pricing sits significantly lower than standard two-way or four-way cast aluminum studs, fitting tightly within municipal budgetary limits.
Targeted Unidirectional Reflection: Matches outer shoulder demands perfectly. Since roadside edges do not require dual-direction visibility, this single-sided setup fulfills compliance without performance wastage.
Superior Durability Over Plastic: Outperforms ABS plastic studs across all criteria. Provides high crush resistance, UV stability, and endurance against de-icing salts, yielding an operational lifespan of 2–4 years (double that of plastic models).
Logistical Efficiency: Reduced individual unit weight maximizes shipping container capacity, drastically lowering ocean and inland freight costs per unit. The short shank design speeds up on-site drilling and installation.
Primary Layouts: Outer road shoulders and right-side edge lines of highways and urban roads, non-motorized vehicle lane boundaries, single-sided warning lines in industrial zones, and low-volume rural road edges.
Not Recommended For: Highway center medians or double-yellow lines (require bidirectional reflection); major crossroads or roundabouts (require multi-directional visibility); main freight lanes subjected to continuous heavy-axle tracking.
