• Superior night visibility: Tempered glass ensures constant light reflection, drastically improving driver safety during nighttime hours.
• Resistance to heavy loads: The 30-ton capacity ensures that the insert remains intact even under the repeated transit of heavy vehicles and articulated trucks.
• Certified compliance: Compliance with the EN 1463 standard guarantees a product tested according to rigorous European standards for road markers.
• Extreme durability: Unlike plastic models, tempered glass does not cloud over and effectively resists mechanical abrasion and thermal shocks.
• Installation versatility: The possibility of direct installation or with a rubber base allows for adaptation to different types of paving and construction site requirements.

This road insert is ideal for lane delimitation, traffic islands, and roundabouts in urban and extra-urban contexts. It is successfully used to mark critical points such as dangerous curves, highway junctions, and high-density heavy traffic areas. Its robustness also makes it perfect for port areas and interports, where the movement of exceptional loads requires underground markers capable of maintaining retroreflective functionality in the long term.

The h972_160 insert is the correct choice when permanent signaling is required that does not need frequent maintenance. It is preferable to adhesive markers in scenarios where heavy vehicle transit is constant and where EN 1463 certification is required for regulatory purposes. It is the ideal investment for public entities and road managers who focus on material longevity and maximum reliability of the optical signal in all weather conditions.

What are the advantages of tempered glass compared to plastic in reflectors?

Tempered glass offers a superior surface hardness that prevents scratches and the clouding typical of plastic. Furthermore, it maintains its reflective properties unchanged for many years, resisting solvents, fuels, and UV rays perfectly.

What does the EN 1463 standard provide for these inserts?

The EN 1463 standard specifies the performance requirements and test methods for retroreflective road inserts, guaranteeing minimum standards of visibility, durability, and mechanical resistance necessary for safe use on European roads.

Is it always necessary to use the rubber base for installation?

No, the stud design allows for installation via direct burial in the ground or bitumen. The rubber base is an additional option that can be used to improve cushioning or for specific installation configurations required by the road project.
