Brady BM7C-500-342 / 174518, Bulk PermaSleeve Wire Marker Sleeves, 21.60 mm x 15.24 m

Product description

Professional cable and wire marking requires materials that can withstand even the most demanding industrial conditions. Original Brady BM7C-500-342 / 174518 labels are designed specifically for use with Brady printers and ensure lasting legibility and durability throughout the entire lifecycle of the equipment. These Bulk PermaSleeve Wire Marker Sleeves combine high print quality with a robust material that resists mechanical damage, moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. An ideal choice for electricians, engineers, and technicians who need a reliable and long-term solution for identifying conductors in switchboards, machines, and industrial installations.

• Type: Original Brady cartridge, ensuring maximum compatibility and print quality.
• Background color: White, which ensures excellent contrast and readability of the black text.
• Material: Polyolefin, a flexible and durable polymer with excellent adhesive properties.
• Printing technology: TT (thermal transfer printing) with TTR ribbon, which creates an extremely durable and indelible image.
• Label width: 21.6 mm, ideal for standard cable and wire diameters.
• Roll length: 15.24 m, ensuring sufficient capacity for larger projects without the need for frequent refill replacement.

This type of tape uses thermal transfer printing technology, which is considered one of the most durable labeling methods. Unlike conventional thermal printing, where the ink is absorbed into the material, here the pigment is transferred from the foil directly onto the surface of the polyolefin. The result is a layer that is practically impossible to wash off, scrape off, or damage through normal cleaning. This makes these tapes ideal for environments where there is a risk of contact with oils, lubricants, dissolved substances, or other aggressive chemicals. The polyolefin material also ensures that the tapes remain flexible even at low temperatures and do not crack even when bending cables.

A white background is the standard in electrical engineering because it provides the best contrast ratio for black text. This ensures that the marking remains legible even from a distance and in low light, which is crucial for safety and the speed of fault diagnosis. A width of 21.6 mm is a universal size that fits most standard cables and wires used in industrial and commercial installations. The 15.24-meter roll length is practical for medium-sized projects and reduces the number of refill changes during work, which increases efficiency and lowers printer operating costs.

Using original Brady supplies guarantees trouble-free printer operation and the quality of the final product. These tapes are precisely calibrated for the printer mechanism, eliminating the risk of jamming, poor print quality, or damage to the print head. Investing in quality labeling pays off in the long term, because properly labeled cables simplify maintenance, reduce the time needed to locate faults, and increase overall operational safety. Brady BM7C-500-342 is therefore a reliable helper for anyone who works with electrical installations and needs a solution that will last for years without compromising on quality and readability.
