The ‘Directional Arrow’ preformed thermoplastic road marking is one of the more versatile of the road marking range as it can be laid in any direction that you require. Commonly used in one way systems, car parks, and airports access roads. This direction arrow is the perfect road marking for keeping a steady flow of traffic moving in the right direction.
When using this road marking, we suggest using a post mounted sign to accompany it to give road users a second chance at the instruction you are setting. Post mounted road signs can be found in our signage section here.
When travelling towards a road marking 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;
Other sizes are available upon request but may carry a longer delivery time.
Applying our Direction Arrow road marking 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.
Thermoplastic on block paving is known to be more difficult to apply and has a substantially shorter lifetime than on bituminous surfaces, such as tarmac.
Block paving is not a solid structure. Most of the time, they are put down and sand is added into the grooves, so over time when moisture creeps in as well as moss, movement can be made within 2 blocks, making the material crack and fail.
