  • Patent number: 11501664
    Abstract: A system of visual and non-visual marks for pipes and couplings which allows users to group the pipes and couplings by type, size, end configurations and composition with a series of symbols, including colors, shapes, swirls, patterns. The symbols are applied to the pipes and couplings by printing, etching, painting, applying stickers, and or molding. The non-visual mark utilize the magnetic and radio reflective nature of the marks to allow remote identification of the plumbing pipes and couplings after being buried.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 26, 2021
    Date of Patent: November 15, 2022

  • Patent number: 10991273
    Abstract: A system of visual and non-visual marks for PVC pipes and couplings which allows users to group PVC pipes and couplings by type, size, and composition with a series of colors, shapes, swirls, patterns. The series of colors, shapes, swirls, patterns are applied to the PVC pipes and couplings by etching, painting, applying stickers, and or molding into the PVC itself. The non-visual mark utilize the magnetic and radio reflective nature of the marks to allow remote identification of the plumbing pipes and couplings after being buried.
