What Is RAL to HEX Converter?

The RAL to HEX converter provides approximate HEX digital color codes for RAL Classic color standards. RAL (Reichsausschuss für Lieferbedingungen) is a European color matching system used extensively in industrial coating, powder coating, paint, plastics, and manufacturing. RAL Classic includes over 200 standardized colors identified by four-digit codes (e.g., RAL 3020 "Traffic Red"). Each RAL color has a precisely defined physical specification. This tool maps those physical colors to their closest digital HEX equivalents, making it possible to preview and reference RAL colors on screen. The search function allows filtering by RAL number or English color name, with visual swatches for each entry.

Technical Guide

RAL Classic colors are physical color standards defined by spectral reflectance curves. The HEX values in this tool are approximate digital representations based on widely published conversion tables. Due to the fundamental differences between physical pigments (subtractive color) and screen pixels (additive color), exact matching is impossible — the same RAL color can look different on different screens. The RAL system uses a four-digit code: the first digit indicates the color family (1=yellow, 2=orange, 3=red, 4=violet, 5=blue, 6=green, 7=gray, 8=brown, 9=white/black). Official RAL physical samples (RAL K7 color fan) remain the definitive reference for critical color matching in manufacturing.

Tips & Best Practices

1
These HEX values are approximations — always verify against physical RAL color samples for manufacturing
2
RAL numbers starting with 1xxx are yellows, 3xxx are reds, 5xxx are blues, etc.
3
For screen-accurate color matching, use a calibrated monitor
4
RAL 9010 (Pure White) and RAL 9005 (Jet Black) are the most commonly referenced RAL colors
5
RAL Design and RAL Effect are separate systems — this tool covers RAL Classic only

Frequently Asked Questions

Q Are these HEX values official RAL colors?

No. RAL colors are physical standards defined by spectral measurements. HEX values are approximate digital representations. For exact colors, always use physical RAL color samples.

Q What is RAL Classic?

RAL Classic is a standardized color system with 213 colors, widely used in European industry for paint, coatings, and plastics. Each color has a four-digit code and a descriptive name.

Q Can I use RAL colors for web design?

You can use the approximate HEX values from this tool. However, RAL is designed for physical materials, not digital displays. The colors will look approximate on screen.
