Understand the product

What is a lamacoid? Lamacoid, lamicoid and material terminology explains the difference between an engraved tag and its material specification. The finished tag name alone does not establish an outdoor rating, chemical resistance or a particular substrate.

Choose the identification for your job

• Custom engraved lamacoids: the full range with stock colours, sizes and base pricing.
• Lamacoid labels: adhesive-backed engraved labels for equipment and enclosure fronts.
• Engraved valve tags: numbered sequences for mechanical rooms and process piping.
• Warning plates: DANGER, CAUTION and WARNING lamacoids for facilities.
• Breaker and panel tags: circuit lists, panel IDs and directory plates.
• MCC and switchgear nameplates: bucket, feeder and lineup schedules.
• Custom legend plates: pushbuttons, selector switches and control functions.
• Equipment nameplates: asset IDs, machine references and replacement plates.
• Solar PV engraved placards: the Solar Labels range and kit builder.
• Arc flash warning plates: engraving to your supplied assessment and project specification.

Prepare a useful tag list

1. Put each unique plate on its own line and state the quantity.
2. Write the exact text with intended line breaks.
3. Give width and height with units; include required character height where specified.
4. List background colour first and lettering colour second.
5. Specify adhesive, holes or both; dimension holes and cutouts.
6. Include drawing revision, delivery location and required date.

If you are replacing tags, add photographs and measurements. For equipment ratings or warning text, identify the responsible source document; engraving the information does not validate the underlying equipment or assessment.
