Gate Arm Safety Tape

This 3M GA1616 tape is designed for marking gate arms and barriers in traffic control settings. Its retroreflective microprismatic surface returns light to drivers in low-visibility conditions. The acrylic adhesive bonds to metal or painted arms for outdoor durability. Road crews and facility managers use it to meet visibility requirements.

Retroreflective Microprismatic Backing

The single specification that determines fit is the retroreflective microprismatic backing material. This engineered layer reflects headlights directly back toward the source rather than scattering light. Standard coloured tapes lack this property and will not satisfy the same safety standards. Verify that your specification calls for microprismatic reflectivity before ordering.

50 Yard Roll Coverage

A 50 yard roll covers multiple gate arms or allows for replacement strips over time. The 18 mil thickness resists tearing during application and withstands weather exposure. It handles straight-arm marking comfortably but runs out on very wide barriers or projects needing continuous coverage across many entry points.

Questions about this item

How does the 18 mil thickness hold up when the tape is applied to a gate arm?

The 18 mil thickness provides a durable retroreflective microprismatic backing that resists outdoor weathering and impact on gate arms.

What does the acrylic adhesive bond to on a gate arm surface?

The acrylic adhesive bonds to clean metal, painted, or plastic gate arm surfaces for a permanent outdoor mount.

Will the 4 inch width cover the full face of a standard gate arm?

The 4 inch width is designed to span the face of typical gate arms, and the 50 yard roll allows multiple full-length wraps.
