Defective Pole Tags
Mark Defective Poles Clearly. Protect Your Crew.
When a pole is defective, there’s no room for ambiguity. Your crews need to see the warning immediately, whether it says “Do Not Climb,” “Proceed With Caution,” or “Pole To Be Replaced.” A faded or missing marker puts lives at risk.
Tech Products manufactures EVERLAST defective pole markers that are in stock and ready to ship within a moment’s notice. The characters are molded in, not painted or screened, so they stay legible through years of outdoor exposure.

Why EVERLAST for Defective Pole Identification
Defective pole markers are safety-critical. They need to be readable in all conditions, all the time. EVERLAST markers use solid white polypropylene characters that are molded directly into the material. You can cut it, scratch it, even dig into it, and the characters remain visible.
EVERLAST withstands saltwater, acid rain, groundwater, chemicals, alkalies, acid solutions, and temperatures from -40 to 220 degrees F. These markers don’t fade, chip, or wear away. When safety depends on clear identification, EVERLAST delivers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What text options are available for defective pole markers?
Stock markers include “Do Not Climb” (items EL39RD50 and EL39RD40), “Proceed With Caution” (item EL39RD48), and “Do Not Climb / Pole To Be Replaced.” Custom text and logos are also available. Call 800-221-1311 for custom orders.
How do defective pole markers attach to the pole?
Our defective pole markers mount in aluminum or poly tag holders, or you can nail them directly through pre-punched holes. Both mounting methods provide secure, long-term attachment. Tag holders are available separately.
Are defective pole markers available in materials other than EVERLAST?
Yes. Our defective pole markers can be manufactured in EVERLAST (solid polypropylene with molded-in characters) or aluminum embossed. Both options provide permanent, weather-resistant identification. EVERLAST is preferred for maximum durability, while aluminum embossed offers a different aesthetic.
How long do EVERLAST defective pole markers last?
EVERLAST markers are rated for lifetime legibility. The solid white polypropylene characters are molded into the material, not applied to the surface. They withstand temperatures from -40 to 220 degrees F, plus saltwater, acid rain, chemicals, and UV exposure. EVERLAST is the only sign system to be UL Listed in NO CHANGE for 40 years.
