Small SOLAS DSMB Stickers
Dive Signs Small SOLAS DSMB Stickers provide highly visible personalised identification for your Delayed Surface Marker Buoy in a more compact format.
Made using SOLAS reflective tape, a material used worldwide for marking marine safety and lifesaving equipment, these smaller stickers are ideal where space is limited while still providing excellent visibility when illuminated.
Adding your name and contact number to your DSMB gives your surface cover or dive boat skipper a clear way of identifying your buoy during ascent, decompression or whenever you’re separated from the boat.
Why add a telephone number?
Coastguard and lifeboat services can be called to reports of lone or drifting DSMBs, potentially triggering a search for a missing diver.
Displaying a telephone number as well as your name gives someone finding your DSMB a simple way to make contact and potentially establish quickly whether assistance is actually required.
To add your telephone number, enter the required number in the appropriate box when ordering. It will be printed below the main identification text.
Sticker Length
If you need the sticker to fit within a particular space on your DSMB, enter the maximum required length (in mm) in the Sticker Length box.
If this is left blank, your sticker will be produced at the standard length for the text ordered. The Sticker Length option is intended to reduce a sticker from its standard length and will not increase it beyond the normal size.
IMPORTANT – Fitting SOLAS Stickers to a DSMB
Although our SOLAS stickers have a strong self-adhesive backing, the surface and flexible construction of a DSMB means that the adhesive alone should not be relied upon for permanent attachment.
For secure fitting, we recommend using Aquasure or a suitable two-part adhesive, such as Beaver Aquabond or Stormoprene, in addition to the sticker’s own adhesive.
The DSMB should be clean, completely dry and deflated before fitting.
Apply a thin layer of suitable adhesive to the back of the sticker and the area of the DSMB where it will be fitted, following the adhesive manufacturer’s instructions.
For best results, leave the DSMB for at least 24 hours after fitting to allow the adhesive to cure fully before use.
