The product is a cable marker from manufacturer Ses-Sterling, type Pliosnap+ PS-15, in yellow colour with black print of the marking "12,7 cm ( 5 inch ). These markers are used for clear identification of cables in electrical and IT installations, particularly in systems where precise cable identification is required. The markers are designed for cables with an outer diameter of 5.8 to 8.5 mm, corresponding to cables with a cross-section of 10.0 to 16.0 mm². The material of the markers is POM (Polyoxymethylene), a technical plastic known for its high strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. These properties make the markers suitable for use in industrial and technical environments where mechanical stress and environmental influences occur.
Cable marking is a central component of any professional installation, helping to avoid errors during assembly, maintenance, or repair. The PS-15 markers enable quick and secure identification of cables, especially in complex systems with numerous parallel lines. The yellow colour and black print 12,7 cm ( 5 inch ) offer high readability, even under low lighting conditions or near other similarly coloured markers. The marking "5 serves as a unique identifier used within internal or project-specific marking systems.
Functions and equipment in detail include the self-closing design of the markers, which allows for easy and secure attachment to the cable without requiring additional tools or adhesives. The markers are supplied loose in a packaging unit containing 50 pieces. The packaging consists of a bag that protects the markers from dirt and damage. The packaging unit is sized to be sufficient for typical installations without being excessively large.
Technology explained simply shows that the markers are made of POM, a thermoplastic material known for its excellent mechanical properties such as high stiffness, abrasion resistance, and wear resistance. This material choice ensures a long service life for the markers, even under mechanical stress or temperature fluctuations. The self-closing shape of the markers allows for easy installation: they are slipped over the cable and close automatically, providing a secure fit without additional tools.
Compatibility and accessories refers to the use of the markers with cables within the specified diameter and cross-section range. The markers are not suitable for cables outside the 5.8 to 8.5 mm outer diameter range, as they either cannot be slipped over the cable or will not close securely. Use with cables in the 10.0 to 16.0 mm² cross-section range is specifically intended, indicating typical applications in electrical installations, such as power lines or industrial connection cables.
Installation and mounting is done by simply sliding the markers over the cable. The self-closing construction ensures that the markers automatically achieve a secure fit after being slipped over. No additional tools, adhesives, or fastening materials are required. The markers are designed to withstand repeated mounting and removal without damage, making them suitable for maintenance work or modifications.
Operational advantages include easy handling, high readability of the marking, and robust material construction. The markers remain clearly readable even under mechanical stress or in environments with high contamination risk. The use of POM ensures that the markers do not easily bend, break, or deform, guaranteeing reliable marking throughout the cable's entire service life. Uniform colour and marking facilitate orientation in complex systems and reduce error rates during installation and maintenance.
The packaging unit contains 50 loose markers supplied in a bag. The packaging weight is 0.01 kg, indicating a compact and lightweight package. The EAN number of the product is 3597470076248. The markers are supplied exclusively as loose individual pieces in the packaging.
