Flag labels for more information on cables and tubes
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 flag labels. The white or colored flag labels stick to elastic and difficult surfaces. They will be placed around the cable and the ends of the label will be coinciding agglutinated. The “flag” created this way provides space on both sides for imprints with text, barcodes or logotypes. Here the label material must provide good printability for the subsequent thermal transfer printing on customer’s site.
The main features of flag labels
- Reliable adhesion to small radii and rounding, to low-energy and slightly oily substrates and to elastic materials and structured surfaces
- Flag labels are very flexible and soft and smooth
- Due to high adhesive power the detaching of both ends of the adhered flag 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
- Also in larger formats easy to apply manually
- High abrasion resistance with suitable thermal transfer ribbons for the thermal transfer printing
- Suitable for standard-compliant labeling like e.g. UL/CSA, FMVSS
- Plain and preprinted labels in individual formats and special forms
Functions and advantages – precisely tailored to safe identification in the area of cable labeling
The flag labels allow for the safe identification of cables and have the load capacity of type plates. The information must be reliably placed in a small space. The flag 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.
