US Patent 7779566 Wire marker

A wire marker that can be removably attached to a wire, such as an aerial or fence wire. The marker can have a base and an integral deformable arm having a first and second distal tip. The tips can have catches on the same side and a catch on the opposite side oriented between the catches and offset along a longitudinal axis between the catches. The offset can be distal or proximal to the base on the longitudinal axis between the catches, and the offset can be configured to accommodate a diameter of a fence wire. The marker base can be substantially triangular in shape and made of injection molded plastic and colored to make it visible relative to its surroundings, such as international orange.
