Lockout Danger Tags: Buying Guide

Lockout-tagout is an effective way to isolate the energy of faulty equipment and machinery during maintenance and repair work, and the use of danger tags can enhance this procedure. Fastening a danger tag to the item that has been locked out offers a clear and visible sign that the item in question is dangerous and should therefore not be touched. We stock a comprehensive range of danger tags to form part of your lockout-tagout system.

The danger tags in our range are made from durable materials such as polyester, which can be wiped clean, and are resistant to spills of water or oil. This means that the message remains clearly visible without fading. All of the danger tags have a bold, eye-catching design that can be understood easily even from a distance. Many of the designs carry the danger warning triangle as well as conveying further information on the hazard involved in easy-to-read writing. Many also have space for you to add further information, and the danger tags can later be wiped clean to allow for further use. Our stationery category features a wide choice of marker pens, perfect for use with these tags.

The danger tags also have a variety of fastening options. Some have a small hole at the top and come supplied with ties to attach them securely to equipment, for replacement ties and more hard wearing options you may want to consider our heavy duty cable ties which are rated for use in industrial environments. There are also tags with a larger hole and a reinforced eyelet to prevent tearing. These are designed to be fastened with a padlock. When applying a hasp or padlock to secure lockout devices a tag should always be attached as the final step in securing the equipment, this will ensure vital safety information is available to all employees and the status of the machinery is made clear. We supply a comprehensive range of padlocks with which to secure all of your lockout equipment, non-conductive padlocks are especially useful for locking out electrical machinery.
