Wrap-around cable labels for the reliable adhesion on rounding

On the electronic devices, computer workstations and switch cabinets the cables must be marked correctly. This way the cables can be unambiguously assigned at a later time. For installation, repair and troubleshooting the technicians depend on the information on the cable labels. The wrap-around cable labels stick to elastic and difficult surfaces and will be completely wrapped around the cable. They must provide high printability for the subsequent thermal transfer printing at the customer’s site.

The main features of wrap-around cable labels

  • Reliable adhesion to small radii and rounding
  • Wrap-around cable label are very flexible and soft and smooth
  • No butterfly effect, due to high adhesive power the detaching in the edge area will be prevented
  • Complete close fitting of the label to the substrate, thus no intrusion of chemicals, liquids or dirt. Also solutions for outdoor application available.
  • Safe adhesion to difficult substrates like elastic materials and structured surfaces
  • Also in larger formats easy to apply manually
  • High adhesion to low-energy and slightly oily substrates
  • High abrasion resistance with suitable thermal transfer ribbons for the thermal transfer printing
  • Suitable for standard-compliant labeling like e.g. UL/CSA, ATEX, FMVSS
  • Plain and preprinted labels in individual formats and special forms

Functions and advantages – precisely tailored to the safe identification in the area of cable labeling

The cable labels allow for the safe assignment of cables and have the load capacity of type plates. The information must be reliably placed in a small space. The wrap-around cable labels offer high flexibility in regard of material and will be individually adjusted to the customer specifications. This happens with the help of suitable special materials of leading manufacturers, individual die‑cutting forms and premium adhesives. The criteria for material choice are the application temperature, flammability requirements, specifications like e.g. UL- or individual automotive standards and the place of application.

The labels can be delivered directly as required in variable amounts, by that the storage and the management of numerous labels may be reduced or dropped.

Our upscale and accurate processing with most modern die-cutting technologies guarantees the highest precision and reliability for the application of cable labels. Thus even labels with adhesives which are difficult to process can be processed mechanically very well, which increases the user efficiency in the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions

The typical application in the area of wrap-around cable labels are typing, serialization, encoding, and numeration. These labels can be applied for example in the following branches and areas:

  • Network technology and server environments (office, industry)
  • Electric tools engineering (switch cabinets, tools, home appliances, office machines, etc.)
  • Mechanical engineering (engines, machines, and machine tools)
  • Automotive manufacturing (OEMs, suppliers)
  • Vehicle construction (passenger transport, freight transport, ship and train construction)
  • Medical products (active, non-active and products with measuring function)

The labels will be wrapped around the cable completely and, additionally, they can be self-laminating when made of transparent material. In this case on the transparent label a white area will be conventionally preprinted, on which data or barcodes can be printed on site. The printed end of the cable label, which contains the actual information, will be adhered first and is protected very well by the wrapping with the remaining transparent part.
