Brady Pipe Markers 20450 To-Go B-736 1″ H x 8″ W White on Green

Description

Product Overview

Brady, a trusted name in safety identification, delivers the 20450 Economy Pipe Markers-to-Go, a compact yet highly visible labeling solution built for the demanding needs of industrial and commercial facilities. Each marker measures 1 inch in height and 8 inches in width, providing ample space for clear text and symbols while maintaining a low‑profile appearance that blends seamlessly with existing pipework. The markers are manufactured in the United States using a high‑grade plastic film that combines flexibility with resistance to chemicals, UV exposure, and abrasion, ensuring that the printed legend remains legible for the life of the installation.

The white‑on‑green color scheme is specifically chosen for maximum contrast in low‑light and high‑glare environments, meeting OSHA and ANSI standards for pipe identification. The self‑sticking adhesive is formulated to bond securely to smooth, clean, and dry pipe surfaces without the need for additional fasteners or tools, simplifying installation and reducing labor costs. Each marker carries the model number 20450 and the B‑736 designation, allowing easy inventory tracking and compliance documentation.

Designed for versatility, the markers can be applied to a wide range of pipe diameters and materials, including steel, copper, PVC, and composite piping. The durable film resists tearing and peeling, even when exposed to temperature fluctuations from -20 °C to 60 °C, making it suitable for both indoor plant rooms and outdoor utility corridors. The product’s lightweight construction (approximately 1.76 ounces per unit) ensures that handling and placement are effortless for maintenance crews.

Usage

These markers excel in environments where clear, permanent identification is critical for safety, maintenance, and regulatory compliance. Typical applications include chemical processing plants, water treatment facilities, oil and gas refineries, manufacturing workshops, and construction sites where pipe routing changes frequently. The high‑visibility white‑on‑green background quickly alerts personnel to the presence of nitrogen lines, reducing the risk of accidental cross‑connection or exposure.

Installation is straightforward: clean the pipe surface with a lint‑free cloth, ensure it is dry, peel the backing paper, and press the marker firmly onto the pipe for at least 30 seconds to activate the adhesive. The markers can be positioned horizontally or vertically, and the adhesive maintains its grip even after repeated cleaning with mild detergents. For larger pipe diameters, the marker can be wrapped around the pipe and secured with a simple overlapping technique, preserving the legibility of the printed legend.

Maintenance crews appreciate the ease of replacement; when a marker becomes worn or needs updating, it can be removed without damaging the pipe surface, and a new marker can be applied in the same manner. The markers are also compatible with standard label removal solvents, allowing quick updates during plant shutdowns or equipment upgrades. Their robust construction means they can withstand routine inspections, pressure testing, and routine cleaning cycles without degradation.

FAQ

Can these markers be used on curved pipe surfaces?

Yes, the flexible plastic film conforms to mild curvature, allowing the marker to wrap around pipes with diameters as small as 2 inches. For tighter bends, the marker can be applied in overlapping sections to maintain full coverage of the printed legend.

What cleaning agents are safe for the marker surface?

The markers tolerate mild detergents, isopropyl alcohol, and diluted ammonia solutions. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or solvents such as acetone, which may degrade the adhesive or cause discoloration of the printed graphics.

Do the markers meet OSHA or ANSI labeling standards?

Yes, the white‑on‑green color scheme and clear legend comply with OSHA 1910.119 and ANSI Z535.3 requirements for pipe identification, making them suitable for regulated environments where compliance documentation is required.

How many markers are included in a standard package?

Each package contains a single 1″ × 8″ marker, allowing precise inventory control. Bulk packaging options are available for large‑scale projects, and pricing tiers are provided for orders of 10, 50, or 100 units.

What is the recommended method for removing an old marker?

To remove a marker, gently peel it back from one edge. If adhesive residue remains, apply a small amount of a label‑removal solvent or warm soapy water, let it sit for a few seconds, then wipe clean with a soft cloth. The underlying pipe surface will not be damaged.
