Description

Overview

Road Train Hinged Sign 1200 x 300mm Class 2 helps other road users identify a road train combination quickly from the front or rear. Because the panel uses a Class 2 reflective face, it improves visibility at night and in poor weather when headlights hit the sign. The horizontal hinge also lets you fold the sign for easier handling and storage when the vehicle is not operating as a road train.

This sign suits heavy vehicle operations where clear identification matters for safer following and overtaking behaviour. It uses a rigid plate format, so it stays flat and readable rather than curling or flapping in airflow. As a result, you get a consistent presentation that is easier to spot from a distance.

Features

• Horizontal hinge design so the sign folds for storage
• Class 2 reflective face to improve night visibility
• High resolution print with UV protection to reduce fading
• Rigid plate format designed for long term outdoor use

Specifications and Materials

Compatibility and Fitment

Fit the sign where other drivers can see the full face from straight behind and straight ahead, and keep it clear of lights and number plates. If you mount it to a frame or bracket, use a rigid mounting point so the panel does not vibrate excessively on rough roads. Also position the hinge so it folds neatly without contacting hardware, because interference can wear the reflective face over time. Road Train Hinged Sign 1200 x 300mm Class 2 performs best when it sits level, stays clean, and remains free of deep scratches.

Compliance and Safety

Only display a road train sign when the vehicle is operating as a road train, because incorrect signage can create confusion for other road users. Requirements can vary by route approval and operating conditions, so confirm what applies to your combination before travel. Also inspect the sign during pre-trip checks, because dirt build-up and surface damage reduce reflectivity and readability. If the face fades or the hinge loosens, replace or repair it promptly so the warning stays clear and reliable.

Trailer Applications

This sign commonly suits:

• road train combinations operating under notice or permit conditions
• prime movers hauling multiple trailers in approved configurations
• fleet vehicles that need consistent warning signage across units
• operators who prefer a hinged plate for easier stowage between jobs
