Road stud is a safety device used on roads. These devices are usually made with plastic, ceramic, thermoplastic paint, glass or occasionally metal, and come in a variety of shapes and colors. Raised road stud, such as plastic, ceramic, metal ones, include a lens or sheeting that enhances their visibility by retroreflecting automotive headlights, while glass road studs gather automotive headlights with a dome shape and reflect the lights with a reflective layer within. Here are features of glass road stud:
1. 360 degree reflection: the design of toughened glass road stud is quite different from that of traditional square plastic or aluminum alloy road stud. The light collecting area is a protruding hemisphere, which is characterized by 360 degree reflection. Glass road studs can reflect the light from any direction when installed on the rugged mountain road. There will be no dead angle of reflection on the curve. Compared with the traditional road stud, the effect is better.
2. Good fixation: a hole shall be drilled on the ground when installing the tempered
glass road stud, and then asphalt glue or epoxy resin shall be used for fixation. Under good installation conditions, there will be no falling off. Most of the traditional road studs are directly adhered to the road surface, which is easy to fall off when the vehicle is rolled, which will cause damage to the road surface and shorten the service life of the asphalt pavement.
3.Good reflective effect: installing the toughened glass road stud on the highway network is not only a "finishing touch", but also a good reflection effect can make the driver clearly identify the lane at night, reduce the fatigue of long-distance driving and reduce the occurrence of accidents.
4. High strength, good durability and durable reflection: the glass road stud surface hardness, impact resistance and wear resistance of the specially toughened glass road stud are quite good; the reflective layer of glass
road stud is embedded in the road surface, which will not be damaged by wheel rolling, and the service life is also increased. The toughened glass road stud can be used for more than 5 years on expressways and more than 10 years on general highways.
