Guiding Band SH
Technical characteristics:
- The Guiding Band SH is manufactured on an industrial scale from white methacrylic resin, flexible and anti-yellowing.
- The chemical composition of the Band, as well as its mechanical characteristics provide very high resistance to abrasion and slip resistance.
- The tape is dyed during the preparation of the pulp. At the customer's request, it comes in different colors (white, gray, yellow, others on request).
- Along the tapes run three lanes with a width of 3 cm and a height of 5 mm each, which form two "gutters", which can be used e.g. to slide the cane into or feel the right direction with one's feet.
Dimensions :
- Length: 500mm
- Width: 155 mm
- Thickness: min. 3mm - max. 5mm
