About this file
This document is a product specification sheet for Pelco Products, Inc.'s AeroFlex Flexible Backplate, a traffic signal accessory designed to improve signal performance and durability. The AeroFlex Backplate is a universal product compatible with most current poly and aluminum signal designs from manufacturers like Peek, McCain, Mark IV, Econolite, Eagle SA, and North American. The backplate is fabricated from black dual durometer thermoplastics, offering a breakthrough design that combines rigidity and flexibility to dramatically reduce stress on backplates, signals, signal mounts, and mounting structures at elevated wind speeds.
The product offers several key technical advantages, including a 37% reduction in stress at 50 MPH wind speeds and a 47% reduction at 75 MPH compared to traditional aluminum louvered and ABS backplates. Additional features include resistance to snow and ice accumulation, ability to flex in any wind direction, maintenance-free performance, and availability with 2" or 3" reflective borders. The backplates come with a standard warranty and 10-year material life, are fracture-resistant, and can be easily installed or retrofitted. The product is designed to accommodate various signal sizes and configurations, with specific models available for different signal sections and reflective tape options.
