The U-18b traffic mirror in rectangular format with a 600 × 400 mm mirror face and total dimensions of 700 × 500 mm (including frame) is designed for road safety use in car parks, at exits, in road junctions and in confined spaces where the field of view needs to cover a longer horizontal area. The rectangular format provides a wider horizontal field of view compared to a round mirror of the same height, making it well suited for exits running parallel to the carriageway and locations where visibility needs to cover a longer lateral distance.
The included pipe bracket fits 2" pipe (fi 60 mm), making installation on standard posts straightforward without additional fittings. The mirror face is manufactured from special acrylic that is impact-resistant, shatter-resistant in the event of damage and resistant to UV radiation and dust — properties that ensure long service life in permanent outdoor installation. The white/red frame provides good visibility of the mirror in traffic environments and the mirror is fully adjustable both vertically and horizontally for precise field-of-view alignment.
With a maximum observation distance of up to 22 m, the U-18b covers the most common requirements at car parks, industrial sites, garage entrances and junctions with restricted visibility across Europe.
What is the U-18b traffic mirror and why should you choose it?
The U-18b traffic mirror is a rectangular acrylic road mirror with a white/red frame, included 2" pipe bracket and two-axis adjustment, certified for road traffic use. The 600 × 400 mm rectangular format provides a wider horizontal field of view than a round 60 cm mirror and is a practical choice at exits and locations where the carriageway runs parallel to the installation direction. At 3 kg with a universal pipe bracket, installation requires no specialist equipment.
Which environments is the U-18b 600x400mm traffic mirror suited for?
The U-18b traffic mirror suits car parks, garage entrances, warehouse sites, exits onto roads and junctions with restricted visibility across Europe. The rectangular format is particularly well suited where the field of view needs to cover a long horizontal distance — for example at exits from multi-storey car parks or industrial premises along a busy road.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What observation distance and field of view does the U-18b 600x400mm traffic mirror cover?
The U-18b traffic mirror with a 600 × 400 mm face covers a maximum observation distance of up to 22 m from the vehicle. The rectangular format provides a wider horizontal field of view than a round mirror of the same height, making it suited for exits running parallel to the carriageway and locations where visibility needs to cover a longer lateral distance. The mirror is fully adjustable vertically and horizontally.
How does the rectangular U-18b traffic mirror differ from the round U-18a?
The U-18b has a rectangular format of 600 × 400 mm (total 700 × 500 mm) and weighs 3 kg. The round U-18a has a mirror diameter of 600 mm (total Ø 700 mm) and weighs 4 kg. The rectangular format provides a wider horizontal field of view and suits exits running along a road, while the round mirror provides a more even field of view in all directions and suits junctions. Both are mounted with a 2" pipe bracket and cover a maximum observation distance of 22 m.
Does the U-18b traffic mirror withstand permanent outdoor installation and does it require maintenance?
Yes, the U-18b traffic mirror is manufactured from special acrylic that is impact-resistant, shatter-resistant in the event of damage and resistant to UV radiation and dust. It is dimensioned for permanent outdoor installation and withstands temperature fluctuations, moisture and sun exposure without deterioration of mirror quality. Normal maintenance consists of simple wiping of the mirror face to maintain visibility quality.
