Arrow tape is a thick vinyl or plastic tape printed with arrows. These arrows are used to indicate the flow of material or people. These tapes are used on boxes, pipes, machines and floors. Vinyl arrow tape is often used on floors and pipes because it is resistant to liquids. Using directional arrow tape improves efficiency and productivity. These arrow tapes wrap around pipes and poles to allow a 360-degree view of the arrow.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sets regulations for what color arrows to placed on specific pipes. Hazardous materials need black arrows on yellow background. Low hazard liquid materials need a green background and white arrows. Gas or gaseous mixtures with low hazard and fire extinguishing materials require a red back ground and white arrows. Other colored arrows are available for common uses where there are no safety hazards.
1. Locate 1/2 to 1-inch wide arrow tape.
2. Purchase 2-inch wide arrow tape.
3. Find arrow tape in widths larger than 4 inches.
