I've never seen one.
 
That's interesting, I have tanks that are a couple years old and they had a Faber advertising sticker on them, and a QR code with the serial number, but no warning sticker, at least that I ever saw.

I suppose there are a lot of folks in the US who would take the position "I did something stupid but you didn't tell me not to do something stupid so it's your fault I did something stupid. And I got hurt because of my stupidity so pay me".

Practically a winning lottery ticket.

I don't know. Italy may not be saddled with that kind of lunacy...

OMMOHY

Humph. I suppose the next thing is a mandate not to eat tubes of silicone grease. Is says FOOD GRADE right on the label!
:facepalm:

Had a tube laying out. Just looked: "CAUTION: DO NOT INGEST"

They have been on industrial gas cylinders in the US at least since the 1950s.


I guess the bureaucrats finally caught up.

Thanks, I just got a new sticker for my tanks. I would be more concerned about the stickers inside the tank than the ones on the outside. lol
