Tyco’s Self-Laminating Labels Help Identify Wire & Cable
Self-laminating
labels (SB) from Tyco Electronics (Harrisburg, PA), a business segment
of Tyco International Ltd., can mark and identify wires and cables used
in most
applications. The labels use thermal transfer technology for
marking, employing a translucent vinyl film substrate with a permanent
acrylic adhesive. The labels are supplied with a white printable area
that is over-laminated upon application with the translucent portion of
the label. The labels are used in a range of electrical and electronic
application, as well as in factory automation and communications
equipment.
The
self-lamination of the labels protects the printed area from exposure
to oil, solvents, water and abrasion. The labels conform to round,
irregular or flexible surface and are suitable for use in applications
where the cable or wire is flexed repeatedly. For added application
flexibility, labels can be flagged around a wire compared to
traditional wrapping.
SB self-laminating labels have a typical shelf life of two years and a service temperature of -40 to 82°C. The minimum application temperature is 10°C.
These labels can be imprinted with the T308S or T312M thermal printers.
Thermal transfer ribbons from Tyco Electronics are recommended.
