Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / Electrical Installation Specification Manual
Spanish term or phrase: rasillas
"Las rasillas, bandas de señalización, etc., para protección de cables se podrán omitir sólo para recorridos...."

I know this is some type of clothing material used as markers at construction sites or electrical installations... how do you translate "rasillas" to English?

Thank you.

Thank you, Smart. I've found that definition, as well, but somehow I thought it may be a cloth band, instead of the hollow bricks. Thank you.
