These 10.75" x 10.75" Class 6.1 Inhalation Hazard hazardous materials placards meet U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) placard specifications and are also suitable for use under Canada's Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) Regulations. Featuring the standard white Class 6.1 design with the skull-and-crossbones symbol in a black diamond, INHALATION HAZARD designation and 6 division number, these placards are designed for identifying Class 6.1 toxic-by-inhalation substances when placarding is required.

DOT: Class 6.1 — Poison Inhalation Hazard; placard specified under 49 CFR §172.555.

TDG: Class 6.1 — Toxic-by-Inhalation Substances; placard specified under TDG Regulations Part 4. The TDG Regulations specifically provide for this Class 6.1 placard design for toxic-by-inhalation substances.

DOT/TDG: This placard design complies with the applicable DOT and Canadian TDG placard specifications. Actual placarding requirements, including when placards must be displayed, depend on the material, quantity, packaging and mode of transportation.

These placards are sold in packages of 25 or 100 only. For corresponding Class 6 Inhalation Hazard DOT shipping labels see item # 03047.
