An NFPA Diesel Fuel 1-2-0 Sign has official ANSI headers for safety protocol and compliance. An NFPA Diesel Fuel 1-2-0 Sign is a useful tool to help protect the health and safety of staff, and is not a substitute for necessary protective measures for lessening or eliminating hazards.
About InfiniStick™ Labels
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.
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.
Compliance
NFPA 704 - A Quick Overview
What is NFPA 704?
NFPA 704 is the standard that is intended to provide a simple, readily recognized, and easily understood system of markings. These markings will provide a general idea of the hazards of a material and the severity of these hazards as they relate to emergency response.
In more specific terms the objectives of the system are to:
To provide an appropriate signal or alert and on-the-spot information to safeguard the lives of both public and private emergency response personnel
To assist in planning for effective fire and emergency control operations, including cleanup
To assist all designated personnel, engineers, and plant and safety personnel in evaluating hazards
The system shall also enable fire-fighting, emergency, and other personnel to easily decide whether to evacuate the area or to commence emergency control procedures. It shall also assist those personnel in selecting fire-fighting tactics and emergency procedures.
Where do I need to post NFPA 704 signs?
Signs shall be in locations approved by the authority having jurisdiction and as a minimum shall be posted at the following locations:
Two exterior walls or enclosures containing a means of access to a building or facility
Each access to a room or area
Each principal means of access to an exterior storage area
What do the colors and ratings in each diamond mean?
Blue - Health Hazard Rating
This relates to the capability of a material to cause personal injury due to contact with or entry into the body via inhalation, skin contact, eye contact, or ingestion. All ratings are determined under emergency conditions.
Rating
Description
Materials that can be lethal
Materials that can cause serious or permanent injury
Materials that can cause temporary incapacitation or residual injury
Materials that can cause significant irritation
Materials that would offer no hazard beyond that of ordinary combustible material
Red - Flammability Hazard Rating
This relates to the degree of susceptibility of materials to burning.
Rating
Description
Materials that rapidly or completely vaporize at atmospheric pressure and normal ambient temperature or that are readily dispersed in air and burn readily
Liquids and solids (including finely divided suspended solids) that can be ignited under almost all ambient temperature conditions
Materials that must be moderately heated or exposed to relatively high ambient temperatures before ignition can occur
Materials that must be preheated before ignition can occur
Materials that will not burn under typical fire conditions
Yellow - Instability Hazard Rating
This relates to the degree of hazard due to reaction with ambient air, light, or both, and the degree of intrinsic susceptibility of materials to release energy by self-reaction or polymerization.
Rating
Description
Materials that can be lethal
Materials that can cause serious or permanent injury
Materials that can cause temporary incapacitation or residual injury
Materials that can cause significant irritation
Materials that would offer no hazard beyond that of ordinary combustible material
White - Special Hazards
This area of the diamond shall address water reactivity and oxidizing properties of the materials that cause special problems or require special fire-fighting techniques.
Rating
Description
OX
Material possesses oxidizing properties
SA
Material is a simple asphyxiant
Material that reacts violently or explosively with water
Non-Standard Special Hazard Symbols
These special hazard symbols and others are not part of the NFPA 704 standard, but may be used if permitted by the authority having jurisdiction.
SafetySign.com does not recommend or specify the use of a specific safety sign because it does not have knowledge of the hazard(s) our customers are identifying. It is the customer’s sole responsibility to identify the hazard(s) that may be present and select one or more signs (stock or custom) that accurately identify their specific hazard(s) and complies with any applicable federal, state or local laws or regulations, any worksite specific rules or regulations and/or any applicable safety standards (including, without limitation, ANSI and/or OSHA standards). SafetySign.com disclaims any and all liability (excluding liability for our Product Warranty contained in our Terms and Conditions) for any sign selected by a customer and shall not be responsible for any personal injury or property damage resulting from the use of signs purchased from it or for the independent interpretation made of any applicable federal, state or local laws or regulations, any worksite specific rules or regulations, and/or any applicable safety standards (including, without limitation, ANSI and/or OSHA standards).
