Description
Compressed air systems demand immediate hazard communication. This danger sign carries the red oval header and white text prescribed by AS 1319 for life-threatening conditions. Place it at compressed air release points, hose connection areas, and equipment servicing zones where workers face sudden impact or injection risks. Available in four durable substrates—corflute for temporary setups, polypropylene for general industrial use, Colorbond for coastal and corrosive environments, and vinyl for flexible applications. Sizes 225×300 mm through 600×900 mm. Trade pricing, lamination, reflective upgrades, and nationwide delivery included.
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked
Where exactly should I position this sign on compressed air equipment?
Install at eye level (1.5 m) directly at the point of hazard—typically near quick-disconnect couplings, relief valves, or hose coils. Ensure visibility from all approach angles if the area has multiple work stations.
Is polypropylene suitable for outdoor compressed air lines?
Polypropylene handles moderate outdoor exposure, but Colorbond steel is recommended for permanent outdoor installations where UV and moisture are constant factors.
Can I order a mix of sizes for a multi-area workshop?
Yes. You can combine different sizes in a single order, and bulk discounts apply to total unit count. Specify each size and quantity in your cart.
What does Class 1 reflective mean for this sign?
Reflective grades provide different visibility performance. Choose the grade required by the project specification and site conditions, and confirm any road, traffic or high-risk requirement with the relevant authority before ordering.
Do you laminate signs before dispatch?
Lamination is offered as an optional extra at checkout. It adds durability and protects print against moisture, oils, and abrasion—highly recommended for workshop floors.
