Abstract: Products, systems and methods are provided for applying a tag or other label/indicia to an item, particularly an item with a circular, elliptical or irregular cross-section. The tag may take various forms. The tags may be secured to a variety of items, e.g., hoses, pipes, equipment, powered industrial units, and the like. The disclosed products, systems and methods allow the tag/label/indicia to be secured relative to the item in an easy and efficient manner. In addition, the securement mechanism includes cooperative mushroom style hooks and loops, and is generally susceptible to only a single use and is disabled and/or ineffectual if the securement is “reversed/undone” and reuse of the securement mechanism is attempted.
