Stimsonite 980 Road Studs

Stimsonite 980 Road Studs are surface mounted road studs that are injection moulded from durable polymers to endure high traffic volumes. The patented sure grip base provides excellent adhesion to the road surface and the patented prismatic glass lens provides high, long-term levels of enhanced reflectivity.

The World’s Best Known Road Markers.

Road studs are integral to traffic safety at night on our roads, this is especially true when conditions are wet as well as dark. In wet conditions, standard road markings can be totally obliterated by surface water. In this situation, raised profile road studs are often the only remaining form of guidance for drivers.

It is therefore imperative that studs retain a high level of long term retro-reflectivity, whilst providing excellent adhesion to the road surface. Stimsonite® is a name synonymous with quality and performance in the road stud industry. Today’s models are the culmination of development and innovation dating back to 1964, and have been the stud of choice across many roads in Europe and the USA. All our road studs are CE marked and manufactured to EN 1463 Quality Assurance. UK DPT approved.

Stimsonite® Road Studs

For over 45 years, Stimsonite® has been at the forefront of road stud innovation, pioneering developments such as the “snow-ploughable” road stud. Stimsonite® products represent innovation and quality that motorists and road engineers alike have come to know as a familiar part of the road infrastructure.

Stimsonite® road studs have proved in trials and installations to hold 100% retention; above and beyond the usual standards for road marker performance. Made from hard wearing and high performance injection moulded polymers and glass facings, Stimsonite® products are made to withstand the toughest conditions on today’s heavily trafficked roads.

Design innovations include a patented groove formation on the underside of the marker, resulting in superior bonding performance to the road surface. The patented prismatic reflective lenses mean that Stimsonite® road studs are able to reflect light back to approaching traffic at up to 800 mcd/lux/m², (retained retro-reflectivity after abrasion test under ASTM D4280-05 standard) and provide clear route delineation at night, in wet or dry conditions.

Stimsonite® road studs:

• Enhance safety by supplementing pavement marking systems for greater delineation and a prismatic design for greater reflectivity
• Provide audible warnings for distracted drivers
• Are durable - providing high impact resistance, rugged performance and retained reflectivity in all weather conditions over time
• Provide delineation to drivers under adverse weather conditions
