Safety Marking TapesIMO Pipe marking Tapes - Marine Pipe Identification Tape General DescriptionPipeline identification on board ships is very important for safety reasons, especially for the safety of the entire crew. The medium flowing through the pipework can cause a lot of damage, and be dangerous to the people on board the ship during an emergency or in case of pipework damage. The appropriate marking makes it possible to identify the type of danger we are dealing with during the emergency and to take the steps to get rid of it.The International standard defines the basic colors which should be used for pipeline identification on board ships.Another regulation, specifies additional colors which can be used together with the main colors for a more thorough marking of the medium flowing through the pipework.AvailabilityThe identification tapes are available in two systems:

Multi-colour system - tapes with the colour combination printed on it - this system is the easiest to install.

Single-colour system - tapes from which you can make any number of colour combinations by yourself, this is a more economical and flexible solution, however, the installation takes longer to complete.Installation Each pipe should be marked at least once in each separate room. The best places for installing the identification tapes are: close to the objects like valves, filters or tanks, pipelines passing through walls or ceilings, close to room entrances. All surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned before applying the identification tapes. During application the tape should overlap 3-4 cm.Technical specification: Thickness (average): 80 microns (without protective paper and adhesive) Dimensional stability: (FINAT TM 14) adhered to steel, no measurable shrinkage in cross irections, in length 0,44 m max Temperature resistance: adhered to aluminum -40C to 80C, no variation Water resistance: adhered to aluminum, after 48h / 23C, no variation Adhesive strength: 16 N / 25 mm (FINAT TM 1, after 24h, stainless steel) Tensile strength: (DIN EN ISO 527) along - min. 19 Mpa, across - min. 19 Mpa Elongation at break: (DIN EN ISO 527) along - min. 130%, across - min. 150% Shelf life: 2 years (in original packaging, at 20C and 50% relative humidity) Application temperature: min. +10C Service life by specialist application: 3 years (depending on individual use conditions)Example configuration
