This item is a marking ring from the Pliotex PT-V+ 45 8 product series in the colour Yellow, manufactured by Ses-Sterling. These marking rings are used for the clear identification of cables in the field of electrical and IT installation. They are specifically designed for cables with an outer diameter between 2.2 and 5.0 mm and are suitable for cable cross-sections from 1 to 6 mm². The rings are made of soft PVC, enabling flexible and shape-stable adaptation to the cable surface. The worm-shaped and pre-cut design facilitates handling and installation, as the rings can be directly slipped onto the cable and secured without additional tools. The black print with the marking “8” ensures a clear and durable labelling that remains legible even under prolonged operational stress.

Marking rings are a standard tool in electrical installation for uniquely identifying cable systems in accordance with standards such as DIN EN 50418 or DIN VDE 0472-800. The colour Yellow is frequently used for specific functions or systems, for example in building automation or for particular lines, with the exact assignment varying according to project requirements. The use of soft PVC ensures high flexibility and mechanical durability, so the rings do not crack or peel even under frequent bending or tensile stress. The pre-cut worm-shaped form allows for quick and precise application without requiring additional tools such as scissors or knives.

Applications include marking electrical lines in buildings, industrial plants, server rooms, or during machine cabling. The rings are designed for indoor use and are particularly suitable for cables installed in cable ducts, switchboards, or on devices. The specified fit for outer diameters from 2.2 to 5.0 mm covers a wide range of cable types, including single conductors, multi-conductors, or more flexible lines in the field of electrical installation. The marking “8” serves as a visual identifier that can be integrated into a cable management system, for example to assign a specific line function, phase, or system circuit.

Technology explained simply: The rings are made from an elastic plastic material (soft PVC) that easily wraps around the cable, forming a tight, non-slip connection. The worm-shaped form means the rings are pre-cut in a continuous strip, allowing them to be individually pulled off and directly slipped onto the cable. The black print “8” is permanently applied and remains legible even under mechanical stress or slight moisture. The material choice ensures high resistance to mechanical stress, such as during installation or movement within a cable duct.

Compatibility and accessories: The marking rings are designed for cables with an outer diameter of 2.2 to 5.0 mm and therefore fit a wide range of cable types in electrical installation. They are not specifically designed for particular brands or systems, but can be used universally. Installation requires no additional tools – the rings can be directly slipped onto the cable.

Installation and mounting: Mounting is done by simply slipping the ring onto the cable. Due to the pre-cut worm-shaped form, no additional processing is required. The rings fit elastically and remain securely in place thanks to the shape stability of the soft PVC material. Additional fastening or adhesive is not necessary. Application is best performed before the final cable installation to ensure secure and clean marking.

Operational advantages: The clear identification via the Yellow colour and black print “8” enables quick recognition of lines, significantly simplifying maintenance, servicing, and fault diagnosis. The material quality ensures long service life and resistance to mechanical stress. The pre-cut worm-shaped form accelerates the workflow, as no additional cutting or fastening steps are required. The packaging unit contains 500 pieces, making it suitable for larger projects or series installations.
