Traffic reflector edit

The Irwin Hodson Company is a Portland, Oregon manufacturing company committed to producing products for as-needed market place designs.  With a history of producing stamped product for regional OEMs, our current mission is to mix our patented and other proprietary product with customer designed parts where the investment in tooling makes sense. Competing in the traffic reflector market is possible with the equipment we have implemented for laminating and stamping materials.  While our substrates are typically aluminum materials, Irwin Hodson reflector brackets or associated fastener products can be made of steel as well.

  • 11'' Barrier Traffic Reflector (11'' BTR)

    11'' Barrier Traffic Reflector (11'' BTR)

    This reflector is designed for concrete barrier application as a delineator/warning device. It is most effective for traffic where extra reflectivity is important. Examples would be dense fog areas or where there is a hindrance of the view of the road ahead and extra guidance through reflectivity is needed. Others would be radical freeway exits or turnpikes. Our choice of reflective material is 3M’s Diamond Grade Cubed sheeting (White or Fl. Yellow), which provides superior angularity of reflection.  

    Optional is a second strip for the back side that can be added for two-way notification on the median barrier. Custom colors may be used for markers with special needs.

    The reflective strip is 3.1” wide by 9”(BTR) to 11”(BTRL) high (overall 11” height) with a  4” wide x.060” thick aluminum substrate.

    The base is 4” (BTR) and 2”(BTRL) in overall length with slots and 2 holes – 5/16” diameter.

    With sufficient quantities the product can be ordered to shorter lengths (9”& 7”).

    For product sustainability simply apply another strip of DG3 over the expired sheeting to give this reflector a new life.

    Total reflective surface:  27 square inches (BTR) and 33 square inches (BTRL) per side.

    Weight:  1/3 lb. each

    Alternatively this product can be used on guardrail posts.

    Standard box quantity:  50 units

    Optional:  A second strip for the back side that can be added for two-way notification on the median barrier. Custom colors may be used for markers with special needs (such as a blue color for patrol or official vehicle turnout markers).
