Engraved Plastic Pole Tags

The overhead distribution of electrical power occurs through wires carried by utility poles and towers. Power is carried in different electrical phases, requiring multiple circuits.

The poles vary in structure from simple wooden poles to metal lattice towers. All require regular inspections and maintenance. A multitude of outdoor durable safety and identification tags and signs are mounted to utility poles to warn and inform service crews of the following: structural conditions, voltages, circuit identification, pole identification and geographic location, previous inspection and service dates, and warnings to unauthorized persons about dangers of high voltage and restricted access.

Our engraved plastic pole tags make for an excellent way to mark poles so they can be easily identified.

Revolutionizing Asset Management with High-Performance Pole Tags

Utility infrastructure demands identification solutions that withstand harsh environments. LEM Products delivers precise, moisture and UV resistant pole tags designed specifically for the electrical industry’s most challenging field conditions. Our engraved plastic pole tags represent a critical technological advancement for companies tracking critical infrastructure across wood and metal utility structures.

Monitoring utility poles requires identification tags that survive extreme temperature shifts, intense sunlight, corrosive atmospheres, and constant environmental stress. We manufacture customized tags that remain highly visible through years of intense exposure.

Answering Your Top Questions About Our Plastic Pole Tags

Why Are Engraved Plastic Pole Tags So Efficient?

Engraved plastic pole tags provide a simple, reliable way to identify equipment in outdoor environments. Their moisture-resistant properties and durability make them perfect for utility and telephone poles, which often face harsh weather and wear. These tags can handle corrosion, exposure to UV rays, and fluctuating temperatures. The engraved information is vandal resistant and stays legible for years.

Companies widely use these tags to identify and display information about the individual poles that is critical to the field technicians climbing and maintaining them.

What Are the Benefits of Using Plastic Over Other Materials?

Plastic pole tags offer unique advantages compared to traditional materials like aluminum. Engraved tags are vandal resistant and maintain their readability and durability over time, making them a reliable option for field conditions. Their flexibility also lets you include information like serial numbers and QR codes. Sequentially engraved tags are made as a single pice and can be mounted directly to the pole without the use of a holder.

What Makes Engraved Information Better Than Printed?

Engraved information outperforms printed tags in two key elements: durability and service life. Unlike printed text that may fade or peel in harsh environments, engraved markings are permanent. They stay intact under exposure to rain, snow, or UV rays, elements that easily wear away at printed tags. For many organizations, engraved plastic pole tags are a smarter choice for outdoor applications where reliability matters most.
