Description

Overview

Oversize Road Train Long Vehicle Sign 1200x490mm is a hinged 2-piece reflective plate designed to identify heavy vehicle combinations that require clear warning signage. It provides the OVER SIZE, ROAD TRAIN and LONG VEHICLE messages in a single rigid assembly, so drivers behind you can recognise the combination type sooner. Because the sign folds at the centre hinge, it stores easier than a single full-width plate while still presenting the full message when deployed.

Features

• Horizontal hinge with 2-piece construction for easier storage and handling
• Class 2 retroreflective face for improved visibility in low-light conditions
• High-resolution print with UV fade protection for long-term outdoor use
• Supplied with 4 extra Anti Luce clips to support secure mounting

Compatibility and Fitment

Fit the sign where it stays clearly visible at the rear of the combination, and make sure the hinge line sits level so both halves align when opened. Also check that the mounting points do not allow the sign to swing, because movement can reduce readability and wear out the hinge faster. If you remove the sign for storage, keep the reflective face clean and protect the corners so the edges do not curl or chip. Oversize Road Train Long Vehicle Sign 1200x490mm suits common rigid mounting methods using brackets, clamps, or clip systems chosen to match your trailer structure.

Compliance and Safety

Signage requirements depend on the combination type, permit conditions, and the state or territory you operate in. However, consistent placement and clear visibility matter everywhere, so keep the face unobstructed by rear equipment, straps, or load overhang. When you fold or unfold the sign, use both halves to reduce twisting load on the hinge, and then confirm the sign sits square to the travel direction. Oversize Road Train Long Vehicle Sign 1200x490mm supports compliance workflows because it combines multiple warning messages in one assembly, but you should still confirm the correct sign use for the specific task.

Trailer Applications

This sign suits heavy trailer and truck combinations that operate under oversize, road train, or long vehicle conditions where a rear warning sign is required or routinely used. It also fits fleets that swap signage between combinations, because the hinged format stores neatly in a toolbox or behind-the-cab storage while remaining rigid when mounted. Oversize Road Train Long Vehicle Sign 1200x490mm can support workshop standardisation when you want one consistent format for multiple operating scenarios.
