Listón o cinta de acordonamiento


Explanation:
"Acordonar" is what this tape is for.

See 3rd entry of "acordonar" in the DRAE:

acordonar.
3. tr. Incomunicar por medio de un cordón de tropas, de puestos de vigilancia, etc.

It's a way to isolate an area and you can do it even with a simple tape.

Other solutions may do, but this is very specific.

Saludos,

Marcvs.

If the text will permit, a good phrasing would go like:

\"... acordonar la zona con cinta para impedir el paso de los empeados\".

(Jus\' an idea.)

cordón de seguridad


Explanation:
se decía antes de que se inventara esa cinta de color amarillo o naranja con letras negras de advertencia.
Ciertamente, se usaba solo una cuerda o cordón.
de aquí tendremos que deducir el mejor término.

suerte.

cinta de advertencia


Explanation:
En realidad los "muchachos" del ambiente le dicen la "cinta peligro" pero creo que es demasiado de la jerga, se debe simplemente a que dice PELIGRO, creo que una buena opción es cinta de advertencia o cinta de peligro
