Tag and Marker

Cable Tag Materials :

There are two options for making cable tags:

 Some companies provide tags that are skinny and versatile, which are often created in no matter rectangular size is required. Some of them are so tough that you can just punch a hole in the tag and attach it to the cable bundle using a tie-wrap. It's fast, simple and easy.

Some cable tags are out there in multiple colors and might be purchased preformatted exploitation of your custom style. You can also use label printers to print cable tags with whatever information you'd like, including color-coding your tags.

The second choice is to use rigid cable tags. Use your label thermal transfer printer to form vinyl labels that are applied to a rigid plastic tag. The tag is then connected to a cable bundle employing a tie-wrap. Both the tags and therefore the rigid plastic cable tags will stand up to harsh environments, together with out of doors weather, sunlight, wet and exposure to grease and grease.

Cable Marking - The Three Options

The three methods for cable marking are:

1. Shrink tube labels
2. Self-laminating cable wraps
3. Rectangular labels with overlaminate

CABLE MARKING - SHRINK TUBE LABELS:

With shrink tubes, you can label cables up to a ½ inch in diameter, and have up to eight colors of shrink tube available for color-coding. Shrink tubes are slipped over the tip of unterminated cables then shrunken to a decent, permanent match employing a heat gun.

If quite eight colors square measure required for color committal to writing, mixtures could also be utilized by adding a second section of the shrink tube next to the written shrink tube cable marker.

Shrink tubes are heat resistant and hearth agent, as well as being resistant to:

• Moisture
• Weather
• Sunlight
• Most Chemicals (extreme chemical resistant DuraLabel ribbons square measure available)
• Tears and abrasion
