Frequently asked questions
What makes a heavy duty safety tag different from a standard tearproof or card tag?

Heavy duty safety tags are printed on 0.8mm PVC which is a thicker, more rigid material than standard tearproof or card tags, specifically designed to withstand the conditions that would cause lighter tags to fail. Where a card tag will deteriorate quickly in moisture and a standard synthetic tag may become illegible through abrasion or UV exposure, a heavy duty tag is engineered to maintain its structural integrity and remain clearly readable over a longer period in demanding environments. They are the right choice when tags are attached to equipment that is difficult or unsafe to access regularly for replacement, or when a failed or illegible tag could create a genuine safety risk on site.
What environments and industries are heavy duty tags suited to?

Heavy duty tags are designed for Australian industrial worksites where standard tags simply do not last. Common applications include mining and resources operations, outdoor construction and civil works, manufacturing and process plant environments, electrical and mechanical maintenance, and any worksite where tags are exposed to heat, UV radiation, rain, dust, grease, or rough handling. They are particularly valuable on equipment that is hard to access for tag replacement, such as elevated plant, underground infrastructure, or machinery that requires a permit or shutdown procedure before anyone can safely approach it.
Are heavy duty tags suitable for lockout tagout procedures?

Yes. Heavy duty tags are well suited to lockout tagout applications, particularly in environments where a standard card or tearproof tag would not hold up for the duration of a maintenance job. They include an attachment hole compatible with padlocks, cable ties, and stainless steel wire, giving you flexibility in how they are secured to an isolation point. For formal lockout tagout procedures under AS 4024.1603, the tag is used alongside a padlock to communicate the isolation status and identify the responsible worker. The durability of a heavy duty tag means the information remains legible even if the job runs across multiple shifts or encounters harsh site conditions.
Can heavy duty tags be customised with our company name or logo?

Yes, custom printing is available across the heavy duty tag range. Many organisations operating in mining, utilities, or heavy industry prefer to have their company name, logo, or site specific wording incorporated into the tag design. This can also include fields tailored to your isolation or inspection procedure, such as specific sign off sections or asset identification areas. Custom tags reduce the risk of incorrect tag use on site and make your safety system easier to audit. Contact the team to discuss your requirements, including quantities, artwork format, and turnaround timeframes.
How should I attach a heavy duty tag to ensure it stays in place?

The attachment method should match the demands of the environment, not just the tag itself. For lockout tagout applications, a padlock through the metal eyeleted hole provides the most secure and tamper resistant attachment. Cable ties rated for industrial use are a practical option for general isolation and equipment status tagging, though they can degrade faster than the tag under prolonged UV or chemical exposure. Stainless steel wire is the most durable choice for long term outdoor installations or environments with high vibration and mechanical wear. Avoid standard string or thin plastic ties in any demanding environment, as these will fail well before the tag itself shows any deterioration.
