3M™ Raised Pavement Marker (RPM) / ROAD STUDS/ILC
3M™ Raised Pavement Markers (RPMs), commonly known as road studs or reflective pavement markers, are high-performance road safety devices designed to improve lane visibility and driver guidance during day, night, and adverse weather conditions. These durable markers use 3M™ Diamond Grade™ microprismatic reflective optics to provide excellent retroreflection by returning vehicle headlight illumination back toward drivers.
3M™ RPMs are widely used on highways, expressways, bridges, tunnels, and urban roads to clearly define lanes, road edges, curves, and hazardous locations
