The Reflectorized Backboard is strong and durable, made from a very tough, impact resistant, UV stabilized 100% Virgin Polycarbonate material that is flexible and not brittle.
The Reflectorized Backboard is strong and durable, made from a very tough, impact-resistant, UV stabilized Poly material that is flexible and not brittle. The Reflectorized Backboard has a uniform color throughout the thickness of the material, eliminating the fading, paint-peeling, and cracking associated with aluminum backboards.
The Reflectorized Backboard is made with 3M™ Diamond Grade reflective tape, increasing the visibility of the traffic signals—thereby increasing safety. The Reflectorized Backboard fits several major manufacturers’ polycarbonate traffic signals and is now accepted in most major cities and regions across Canada. It is also available as a retrofit for existing aluminum signal heads.
The reflectorized backboard adds a reflective border around a compatible traffic signal assembly. The Fortran document describes several signal configurations and retrofit options, making the housing and section arrangement important when ordering. A backboard should be matched to the actual signal assembly rather than selected by a general size description alone.
Send the signal-head manufacturer, housing type, section sizes and arrangement. Include the existing backboard code or a photograph when requesting a replacement. Ask Fortran to confirm the appropriate configuration, colour and mounting hardware, and review compatibility with the signal's brackets and available clearance.
View the manufacturer product document for the model tables and drawings, or contact Fortran with your equipment details.
