⚖ PRODUCT SPECIFICATION

What you get

Keep your Ontario fleet rolling without administrative delays. Our tare weight decals are engineered to support your compliance efforts by delivering precise, pre-masked markings that align with provincial standards. You receive high-quality, 25mm high cast vinyl decals that are pre-spaced and ready for application. This design eliminates the guesswork of manual spacing, ensuring every character is perfectly aligned before it ever touches your vehicle.

  • 25mm character height built to the published spec of O.Reg 413/05
  • Pre-masked backing for fast, error-free installation
  • Durable cast vinyl rated for Canadian winters
  • Made in Canada using premium materials

How it works

Installing your new markings is straightforward and efficient. The pre-masked design allows you to position the entire decal sheet at once, then remove the backing and apply it to the truck. This method significantly reduces installation time compared to traditional methods where each character must be placed individually. The vinyl adheres firmly to clean, dry surfaces, providing a professional finish that looks good from the first day. You do not need specialized tools or extensive training to achieve a clean result.

  • Peel, position, and apply in minutes
  • No individual character alignment required
  • Smooth application reduces air bubbles and misalignment
  • Compatible with standard truck body surfaces

Why it works

Commercial truck operators need markings that withstand harsh conditions. Our cast vinyl is selected for its longevity and resistance to environmental stressors. It is designed to survive commercial car washes and extreme temperature fluctuations common across Ontario. The material remains flexible and adheres securely, preventing peeling or fading that can lead to non-compliant markings. By using high-quality materials, you ensure that your tare weight information remains legible and accurate throughout the lifecycle of your vehicle.

  • Resists UV rays, moisture, and road salt
  • Withstands repeated commercial wash cycles
  • Flexible material prevents cracking in cold weather
  • Long-lasting adhesion reduces re-application costs
