About InfiniStick™ Labels

  • InfiniStick Mounting Surfaces

We engineered our InfiniStick™ labels for maximum adhesiveness and durability. InfiniStick™ labels are made with Brimar’s specially formulated adhesive and ultra-durable vinyl and can withstand the most challenging conditions without peeling off. Safe for use between -20° to 176° F and capable of sticking to a wide range of smooth and rough surfaces, InfiniStick™ labels are ideal for nearly any application.

InfiniStick™ labels adhere to a wide range of surfaces, making them perfect for use outdoors, in industrial settings, on machines, containers, vehicles, and more. For maximum adhesion, simply wipe the surface clean, remove the film from the label, and stick.

  • InfiniStick Mounting Surfaces

Thanks to their durability and versatility, InfiniStick™ labels will remain in place and effective for years, saving you money compared to standard labels, which must be replaced more frequently. Whether your label contains a safety warning, hazard rating, or any other directive, you can count on the resilience of labels made with InfiniStick™ technology.

ARC FLASH LABELS

What is an Arc Flash?

An Arc Flash is an electric current passing through air between ungrounded conductors or between ungrounded conductors and grounded conductors resulting in an explosive burst of heat, light and a pressure wave. The temperatures can reach as high as 35,000°F. Exposure to these conditions burns the skin directly, may cause a variety of serious injuries and can even result in death.

How to avoid or minimize this hazard?

There are multiple national organizations that provide guidelines and standards on the risks and prevention of electrical related hazards in the work place. Among them are OSHA, ANSI and NFPA. Of these three organizations, NFPA provides the most comprehensive standard for safety-related work practices for employers to implement and provide a safe working area for employees relative to the hazards arising from the use of electricity.

What are the equipment labeling requirements?

Equipment labeling requirements are detailed in both the National Electrical Code (NEC) NFPA 70® as well as in the 2018 NFPA 70E®.

NEC® NFPA 70® states in 110.16:

"Electrical Equipment, such as switchboards, switchgear, panelboards, industrial control panels, meter socket enclosures, and motor control centers that is in other than dwelling occupancies and is likely to require examination, adjustment, servicing, or maintenance while energized shall be field marked or factory marked to warn qualified persons of potential electric arc flash hazards. The marking shall be located so as to be clearly visible to qualified persons before examination, adjustment, servicing, or maintenance of the equipment."

Equipment labeling is the responsibility of the employer when any electrical equipment must require examination, adjustment, servicing, or maintenance while energized.

The 2018 NFPA 70E® goes into further detail about the labeling requirements in Article 130.5 (H) Equipment Labeling:

Electrical Equipment such as switchboards, panelboards, industrial control panels, meter socket enclosures, and motor control centers that are in other than dwelling units and are likely to require examination, adjustment, servicing, or maintenance while energized shall be marked with a label containing the following information:

  • Nominal system voltage
  • Arc flash boundary
  • At least one of the following:
    • Available incident energy and the corresponding working distance, or arc flash PPE category in Table 130.7 (C)(15)(A)(b) or Table 130.7(C)(15)(B) for the equipment, but not both.
    • Minimum arc rating of clothing.
    • Site-specific level of PPE.
