Protect your crew from severe job site injuries with our high-visibility
Pinch Point Safety Decals (SKU: CPP-001), featuring the bold quoted legend
"DANGER PINCH POINT". Designed specifically for cranes and industrial machinery, these OSHA-compliant warning labels identify mechanical crush hazards to keep your operators safe and your equipment running without costly operational downtime.
Compliant CPP-001 Danger Pinch Point Stickers: Design and Hazard Identification
The model CPP-001 danger pinch point stickers utilize a high-contrast red, white, and black color scheme to ensure rapid warning recognition on active machinery. Featuring a stark red header indicating a high-level DANGER hazard scenario, the label communicates immediate risk to operators and ground personnel. The bold central text explicitly identifies the hazard as a PINCH POINT, removing any ambiguity about the physical mechanical threat present.
To provide a clear directional reference directly to the physical hazard zone, this pinch point safety decal features an innovative two-piece system, consisting of a main warning decal and a separate, positionable black pointing arrow. This configuration allows you to place the arrow to point exactly at the mechanical pinch point from any angle, while keeping the primary danger warning text level and upright for the reader. This targeted design directs the eye to the exact mechanical shear or crush area, ensuring personnel remain clear during operation. Printed with CraneSafetyStickers.com and the model identifier CPP-001 at the footer, these decals help maintain clear, professional-grade markings on your machinery.
This safety decal supports site-wide safety communication by providing a universal warning at critical mechanical interfaces. By clearly marking where fingers, hands, or limbs could be caught, these hazard markings effectively address high-hazard zones on active machinery, preventing severe crush injuries or amputations.

Proper Placement and Surface Preparation
For maximum longevity and readability, these decals must be applied to clean, flat, high-visibility surfaces adjacent to mechanical pinch points, shear zones, or crush hazards. Before adhering the decal, thoroughly clean the application surface to remove all oil, grease, and dust. Any remaining surface contaminants can compromise the adhesion, leading to peeling and eventual failure.
Mount these safety markings on flat, smooth, non-porous surfaces. First, apply the main warning sticker in a level position so it is easy for personnel to read. Next, position and apply the separate black arrow sticker so it points directly toward the physical hazard or mechanical point of operation. Ideal placement areas on your equipment include near the operator station, on the cab door, or at the base of the crane boom. Ensuring these markings are mounted properly near active operating zones protects your crew and keeps vital safety instructions visible.
Because mechanical crush hazards exist across a wide range of industrial equipment, these warning decals are highly compatible with heavy machinery such as boom trucks and press brakes. On a boom truck, these labels are essential near articulating joints, outriggers, and rotating sub-structures. On industrial press brakes, placing them near the primary point of operation—where sheet metal is bent and formed—provides critical visual warnings for operators handling materials.
