The flexible identification collar consists of a strap with an attached tongue on one end. The strap is the approximate length of the outer circumference of the hose to which it is to be attached. There is a slot or hole in the strap adjacent to the end opposite the tongue through which the tongue passes when the strap is wrapped around a hose and is then fastened to the strap exterior layer. Use of hook and loop material on the tongue and the exterior and interior layers of the strap serve to secure the tongue and strap end to securely fasten the collar to a hose. In addition hook material or grip material on the interior layer provides a friction surface to prevent slippage on the hose. The exterior layer of the strap will normally be made of a reflective or fluorescent material for improved visibility in low light situations. In addition, an alternate color reflective stripe may be added to the exterior layer as well as a reflective label.
