Traffic Cones in the Heat: How Does JBC Hold Up?
When the summer sun is blazing and the pavement is hot enough to fry an egg, not all traffic cones are created equal. At Traffic Cones For Less, we’re proud to offer cones that don’t just survive the heat — they thrive in it. One of the standout performers in high temperatures? JBC Safety Plastic’s Revolution Series cones.
Let’s take a closer look at why JBC cones are a go-to choice for construction crews, municipalities, and event managers working in extreme heat.
Built to Beat the Heat
JBC cones are made from premium PVC through a one-piece injection-molded process. This gives them superior flexibility and strength, which is especially critical when cones are exposed to prolonged heat and direct sunlight. While lower-quality cones may warp, fade, or even stick to hot asphalt, JBC cones hold their shape and color through it all.
UV-Resistant, Fade-Free Orange
Nothing says safety like a highly visible cone — and JBC gets it right. The bright fluorescent orange color is UV-stabilized to resist fading even after long days under the sun. Whether you're in Arizona, Florida, or Texas, these cones remain vibrant, which means greater visibility and safety on the road.
Stay-Put Base in Scorching Conditions
Heat often leads to softening asphalt — a big problem if your cones start sinking or sliding. JBC cones feature a rugged black recycled base that’s designed to stay put. The patented Leveling Differential system fuses the base and cone body together for long-term durability, so you won’t be replacing cones every few weeks during peak summer.
Reflectivity That Works Overtime
Each JBC cone comes with high-intensity reflective collars that stay bright even in punishing sunlight or after repeated handling. The collars are UV-resistant and built to meet both MUTCD and NCHRP-350 standards, meaning they’re not just heat-tough — they’re road-safe and regulation-ready.
