Who is this for

The Testing In Progress Tag is used by commissioning engineers, test coordinators, inspection technicians, and safety officers to mark equipment, systems, and pipework that are currently under active testing and must not be interfered with, connected to, or operated by unauthorised personnel during the test period. The front records the equipment being tested, the test coordinator, contact phone number, reason for test, date started, and time started. The reverse records the permit number and a sign-on and sign-off table for each named test, allowing multiple test activities to be tracked on the one tag across a test programme that may involve several discrete steps or individuals. The high-visibility orange and black striped border makes the tag immediately identifiable in busy commissioning and maintenance environments, and the structured sign-on and sign-off table provides a traceable record of each person who participated in each test. It is used across oil and gas commissioning, mining plant commissioning, manufacturing process testing, and infrastructure pressure testing programmes where multiple tests are conducted on the same equipment across a defined test period.

Additional Information

The BST 163 Testing In Progress Tag communicates active testing activity on equipment and systems across Australian construction, mining, oil and gas, and industrial worksites where unauthorised interference during testing could cause serious injury. Manufactured from heavy duty card with an 8mm hole, it captures test coordinator details, reason for test, and a multi-person sign on and sign off grid on the reverse. Each pack contains 100 pre-strung tags.

Common across commissioning, maintenance, and pressure testing operations, it keeps all personnel informed of active testing status and provides a clear record of who has signed on and off throughout the test.

  • Reverse permit number field and test name, sign on, and sign off grid for multi-person testing accountability
  • High visibility orange and black hazard stripe design for immediate identification of active testing zones
  • 8mm hole for secure attachment to equipment and test points

Frequently asked questions

How many tags come in a pack?

All of our tearproof tag packs contain 100 tags, making them practical for stocking site offices, tool rooms, and maintenance facilities. Buying in packs keeps per unit costs down and ensures you have adequate supply on hand without needing to reorder frequently. For larger operations managing multiple sites or high tag turnover, trade accounts and bulk pricing are available — contact the team to discuss your requirements.

Do the tearproof tags come pre-strung?

Yes, our tearproof tags come pre-strung and ready to use straight out of the pack. This saves time on busy sites where tags need to be applied quickly during isolation or equipment inspection procedures. The stringing is suitable for attaching tags to valves, switches, equipment handles, and isolation points. If you need tags attached using a specific method for your site procedures, the metal eyelet also accepts wire, cable ties, or nylon rope as alternatives.

What size eyelet do the tearproof tags have?

Each tearproof tag comes fitted with an 8mm metal eyelet. The metal eyelet reinforces the attachment point and prevents the tag from tearing where it is hung, which is the most common failure point on cheaper tags. An 8mm eyelet is a practical size for most standard wire, cable ties, padlock hasps, and isolation points found on Australian worksites, making the tags compatible with the majority of lockout tagout and equipment isolation setups without any modification.

What material are the tearproof safety tags made from?

Our tearproof safety tags are made from polypropylene, a synthetic material that resists tearing, moisture, oils, chemicals, and UV exposure. Unlike card or paper tags which deteriorate quickly on site, polypropylene maintains its integrity in the conditions you find on Australian construction, mining, and industrial worksites — heat, dust, grease, and rough handling included. Each tag is printed with no fade inks to ensure critical safety information stays legible throughout the tag's service life.

What types of safety tags are available in the tearproof range?

Our tearproof range covers a wide variety of tag types to suit most Australian worksite requirements. Available titles include Danger Do Not Start, Danger Do Not Operate, Out of Service, Personal Danger, Do Not Energise, Caution Repair, Caution Information, Out of Service, Commissioning, Information, Warning Do Not Remove, Inspected Ready to Use, Quality Control, Accepted, Rejected, Inspection, Passed Inspection, Failed Inspection, Repair Order, Leak Inspection, Q.A Approved, Q.A Hold, Quarantine, Full Cylinder, and Empty Cylinder. All are made from polypropylene with a metal eyelet and come pre-strung in packs of 100.
