Gives requirements for marking plates faced with reflex-reflecting and fluorescent materials for fitting to the rear of vehicles and trailers. Includes requirements for colorimetric and photometric properties and tests for physical requirements. Covers definitions, design, type test, marking, materials, preparation and finish of plates, reflex-reflecting and fluorescent surfaces, letters and borders, adhesive marking plates, colour, accelerated weathering, bending and corrosion, fuel resistance, bonding strength, water resistance, thermal resistance, abrasion resistance, attachment of marking plates to the vehicle with adhesive, attachment of individual letters and borders by adhesive and rigidity of suspended marking plates.

This British Standard specifies requirements for marking plates faced with reflex-reflecting and fluorescent materials for fitting to the rear of certain vehicles and trailers.

The standard includes requirements for colorimetric and photometric properties and tests for certain physical requirements.
