pipes, including accurate representation of flow
direction, improve response time in emergencies and
make maintenance work easier and less expensive.
Brady's selection of pipe markers are designed for
specific applications, so there's no settling for an
alternative product that "might" work in your specific
application. And nobody offers a wider selection...but
if don't see exactly what you need, let us custom make

Brady EXCLUSIVE!
Brady's acrylic-based adhesive eliminates the wait for
warm weather installation. Brady self-sticking pipe
markers can be installed safely and effectively in
temperatures as low as 0°F (-18°C). Other self-sticking
pipe markers use a water-based adhesive that requires
temperatures of 40°F for proper installation. Also,
Brady's acrylic-based adhesive means markers stay put,
even in high humidity conditions, which causes those
"other" pipe markers to fall off.

The purpose of the standard is to assist in identification of
hazardous materials conveyed in piping systems and their
hazards when released into the environment
Pipes are
defined as conduits for the transport of gases liquids semi
liquids or fine particulate dust

Self-Sticking Pipe Markers
Mechanically Applied Pipe Markers
High Performance Pipe Markers
Factory applied industrial grade
adhesives simplify marker installation.
Simply peel the release coated paper
backing from the marker and press the
marker in place. Banding each end of
the marker with Arrow Tape (see page
98) is recommended to indicate
contents flow direction and to secure
markers to the pipe.
Unlike installing self-sticking markers,
there's no need to clean pipe surfaces.
Installation time is reduced. Markers are
simply snapped, strapped or wrapped in
place.
