Description

The R12-2 sign is designed with clarity and functionality, prominently displaying the message “AXLE WEIGHT LIMIT 5 TONS.” This clear sign is an important guideline for drivers to understand and follow the weight restrictions imposed for safe travel. By setting a distinct limit, the sign helps prevent damage to roadways and bridges that could result from overloaded vehicles. Drivers must take this information seriously, as adhering to these weight limits contributes to overall road safety and infrastructure preservation.

Bridge Entrances: Crucial for bridges with specific weight limitations to prevent structural strain and potential hazards.
Roads Leading to Historic Sites: Essential in historic zones to mitigate potential damages from heavy vehicles.
Industrial or Port Areas: These are where varying vehicle types with different axle weights converge, efficiently guiding trucks and other heavy vehicles.

Customize your sign’s material and reflective sheeting grade to suit your needs.
