Road studs different types mainly included four, as per different classification standards.
Road studs are components used to fix and support road structures. They are usually installed in the middle of road markings or double yellow lines to remind drivers to drive in lanes. According to different applications and materials, we can divide road studs into below four main types:
1. materials of road studs different types
Aluminum road studs: have high durability and compressive strength, suitable for sections of road where heavy vehicles pass, such as highways and bridges.
Plastic road studs: low cost, suitable for areas with low traffic volume, such as hospitals and schools.
Ceramic road studs: more used in the early days, but fragile, not recommended.
Glass ball road studs: more used in the early days, difficult to install, less basic applications.
2. function of road studs different types
Ordinary road studs: used to mark lane lines, center lines, edge lines, etc.
Solar road studs: built-in solar panels, charged during the day, automatically illuminated at night, suitable for occasions requiring continuous lighting.
LED road studs: equipped with LED lights, powered by solar energy or electricity, automatically illuminated at night.
Reflective road studs: rely on reflective materials to reflect the light of headlights to enhance nighttime visibility.
3. different types of road studs number of reflective surfaces
Single-sided road studs: only one side of the reflector.
Double-sided road studs: have two sides of the reflector, which can reflect light from multiple angles.
4. Classification by installation method
Embedded solar road studs: installed in the road surface, suitable for occasions requiring high compression performance.
Protruding solar road studs: installed on the road surface, mostly used for road edge lines.
