50mph Roundels Multiple Sizes & colours

Our quality 50mph thermoplastic roundels are the ideal road marking solution for sections of country road and dual-carriageways that have a maximum speed of 50mph. Their position on the surface of the road makes them easy to see, and when used alongside roadside signage gives no excuse for not obeying the speed limit.

These pre-cut 50 mph speed limit roundels are a great alternative to hand-painted roundels. This is because they are always the correct size and shape. There are several other benefits to thermoplastic markings when compared to traditional markings. These benefits include;

Easy Application - No special knowledge, talent or years at art school required, just a clean surface and a gas heat gun.
Professional Appearance - These markings always look good due to their pre-cut design.
Fast To Install - Minimal surface preparation is required for these markings, with a worst-case scenario requiring an application of primer.
Non-Slip - Apply glass bead to enhance the traction of your marking, both for pedestrians and vehicles.
Conforms to BSEN 1871

Choose From Tri-Colour or MonoChromatic

Tri-Colour

Tri-Colour Markings are those supplied in “full colour” in this case Red, White and Black. They have their own contrast but cost a little bit more.

MonoChromatic

These roundels only use white colour and have no background to them. They are more commonly seen on public highways.

Choose From An Array Of Sizes

When travelling towards a speed roundel at speed it needs to be intentionally distorted. This ensures that it can still be interpreted correctly by approaching motorists.

Our range of roundel sizes includes;

750mm x 750mm
1200mm x 1200mm
2500mm x 1500mm
3200mm x 1500mm
4300mm x 1500mm
4570mm x 1500mm
7600mm x 1500mm

Other sizes are available upon request but may carry a longer delivery time.

Application Of Our Speed Roundels

Applying our speed roundels is very easy. Firstly the area must be cleaned of all loose debris, oil, grease and salts. Once this is done you are ready to get going. If your road surface is old tarmac, concrete or block paving then you will need to use our fast-drying primer.

Once you have fully prepped the surface the roundel can be set out. Once you are happy with the marking positioning a heat gun can be used to melt the marking to the road surface. For additional traction glass bead can be sprinkled over the surface, this is fused into the marking with the further application of heat.

FAQs

How to remove pre-existing road markings

Thermoplastic

Removing Thermoplastic can be done a few ways. With enough pressure a water blaster can be used, or a sandblaster. Other ways include using a lance. The Compressed air will burn off the material. Or depending on if you have the kit available, use a scabbler. It will act as a sort of Jackhammer and break apart the material away from the road surface. In situations where the material is heavily trafficked and worn down closer to the substrate, removal is not necessary, and fresh Thermoplastic can be applied over the top. If the material still has a lot of body or a good level of thickness to it, removal is to be carried out first.

MMA/EPOXY

Strong solvents may not be useful for larger quantities of MMA that may be required for Road Markings. Some sort of abrasion or grinding equipment would be required for a material as durable as MMA/epoxy. It will wear the material down to the underlying substrate, ready for re-applying fresh product.

How to identify pre-existing road markings

Thermoplastic road markings will be softer and can be chipped and carved away with force with a hand tool, such as a screwdriver or chisel. If you can remove a small amount, test with a small flame from a lighter and see if it melts/becomes fluid. If it does, this implies it is a thermoplastic marking.
MMA material is much tougher, and the curing process cannot be reversed. It will remain solid and should not be exposed to elevated temperatures as it gives off toxic odours when burning. Due to its higher durability, you should not be able to carve or pry it away using a hand tool.
Other markings, such as paints or coatings, are harder to identify, as they come in different forms, such as oil-based, water-based, and epoxy paints. In these situations, it is advised that disclosure be requested from the client. In any scenario of uncertainty, consult with the client and gain their insight regarding the pre-existing markings that are present.

Can you install these markings on block paving?

We cannot guarantee the results of laying thermoplastic markings on block paving. This is due to the moisture often present between each block and the movement the blocks experience in relation to each other as traffic passes over them.
