Labels and ribbons

Cable and wire labelling is essential for the safety and efficiency of technicians, electricians and field engineers. Indeed, cable marking is critical for the identification, maintenance and repair of cables for telecom and electricity networks. Telenco store provides many different labels and ribbons to suit all types of cables, whether they are installed indoor or outdoor.

How to choose the right wire marker or cable label?

Choosing the right labels is really important to guarantee protection of the printed text against potential moisture, dirt, deposits and mechanical abrasion. Various wire markers and cable labels are available to meet all field engineers’ needs:

- Wrap-around labels, for general marking on cables and wires that are curved or may become curved,

- Self-laminating labels, featuring an extremely resistant protective over-laminate

- Cable flags, ideal for getting larger amounts of data on small diameter wires and cables

- Non-adhesive tags, mostly used for multi-conductor cables or bundled wires/cables

However, the label material is the most important feature to check. Indeed, each label material are engineered for a specific use and environment, and choosing the wrong one could cause the label to deteriorate or the inscriptions to quickly fade. Some are UV, cold and tear resistant, which is ideal for marking on utility and telegraph poles. For marking cables and wires in manholes, you may use the B-7598 material for example, as it is immersion-proof. The B-595 labels are very adhesive and work well on street cabinets, as it is suitable for irregular textured surfaces while the B-427 is suitable for indoor cable identification (it is resistant to abrasion, water and oil, and stains).

In addition, you can choose labels and ribbons with either a matt or glossy finish, depending on your needs.

Some labels already contain ink for printing. This is usually the case for those used with compact printers. Others require a thermal transfer. This is an ink ribbon that is integrated into the labelling machine to allow printing. These ribbons are several metres long so that they do not need to be changed too often.
