Rhino 3 Rail Fiberglass Marking Post [SunCoat Coating]
Before ordering, please read the "Product Description & Specs" tab content for more information about this item.
Product Description
Rhino's 3-Rail Fiberglass Marking Post [SunCoat Coating] is a heavy duty underground utility marker built to withstand direct impact and return to its upright position. The industry standard 3-Rail profile makes it the most drivable fiberglass marker in the Rhino line, and it installs easily in almost any soil condition. Each post is saturated with bright pigments and UV stabilizers, then finished with Rhino's SunCoat for an added layer of protection against fading.
Use this marker post to flag buried gas, water, sewer, electric, or telecommunications lines and remind excavators to call 811 before they dig. Reinforced side rails and a center rib keep the post rigid for driving, while the 3-Rail construction allows it to flex and recover when struck from the front or back.
Features & Benefits
- Pultruded fiberglass construction set in a composite resin for long term strength.
- 3-Rail design bends on impact from the front or back, then returns upright.
- SunCoat finish helps resist fading from sun exposure.
- Remains flexible from -40°F to +140°F.
- Fire resistant and temperature stable.
- Pointed end for straightforward installation.
- 18" bury depth decal included.
- Available in 62 in., 66 in., and 72 in. lengths.
- Available in white, red, orange, yellow, blue, purple, and green.
Country of Origin: United States.
Application Instructions
- Determine the correct bury depth for the utility line being marked and use the included 18" bury-depth decal as a placement guide.
- Position the post at the marking location with the pointed end facing down.
- Drive the post into the ground using a flat post driver, keeping the post vertical as it is set.
- In hard or rocky soil, form a pilot hole first, then insert and drive the post into place.
- Apply warning decals to the front and back faces of the post as needed.
* Multiple cases may be shipped per package in order to minimize the charge for shipping.

- Special order sizes often ship direct from our supplier so will not arrive together with stocked products.
Special Order Minimums
- Minimum requirements apply because a size may be non-stock.
- Minimum Quantities: If a particular size has a minimum item requirement, please only order that size in multiples of that minimum (e.g. if the minimum is 12, then use multiples like 12, 24, 36, etc).
Question & Answers
User Reviews
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
