Reflective bands for the delineator posts can come in 3 or 4 inches.  These are good for alerting oncoming traffic because the light of the car reflects off the post.  Posts can be either flat top or t-top, which is handle that makes it easier to grab and move around.

delineator posts, delineator post, traffic tubes, construction postsThere are lots of types of delineator posts out there, so before you choose your post too fast, check out some of the options available.  There are “T-top” delineators” and “open top” delineators, the t-top ones are good because you can grab them easier at the top, and the open top ones are just flat on the top and more traditional.  Industry heights are roughly; 18″, 28″, 36″, 39″ and 42″.

Reflective tape is very common on these, usually two 3 or 4″ bands.  Posts usually come in orange, yellow or white, and switching between colors is not going to mean ordering a large quantity.  Posts are usually designed with a lip that comes out at the bottom so it stands alone, but bases are always a good idea – just look out for those shipping costs!
