SWARCO Glass Beads IL Type-4 Megalux

SWARCO IL Type-4 Megalux Glass Beads are premium reflective glass beads engineered to maximize road marking visibility under wet-night conditions. Their larger bead size and crystal-clear finish allow for light to penetrate and reflect, even when pavement is covered in a water film—making them ideal for thin application systems where superior retroreflectivity is critical.

These beads meet or exceed Illinois DOT Type-4 specifications and are compatible with a wide range of marking materials including thermoplastics, waterborne paints, and cold plastic systems. Designed to perform in challenging weather, SWARCO Megalux Beads help ensure consistent nighttime visibility and long-term durability.
