The product
Pliogrip T2 8 yellow from Ses-Sterling is a cable marker from the Pliogrip product series, specifically developed for marking conductors and cables in the field of electrical and IT installations. It is made of polyoxymethylene (POM), a robust plastic known for its high strength and weather resistance. The markers are coloured
yellow and feature a
black print of the number 8, enabling clear visual identification. These marking systems facilitate the unambiguous assignment of cables and conductors, whether before or after wiring, thus simplifying maintenance, fault diagnosis, and documentation in plant operation.
Applications
This marker is designed for cables with an outer diameter of 3.8 to 5.3 mm, corresponding to a cable cross-section size of 2.5 to 6.0 mm². These dimensions cover a typical application range in industrial electrical installations, building automation, and IT infrastructures. The markers can be mounted on both insulated conductors and cables with the corresponding diameter, and the marking can be applied regardless of installation status – even after wiring.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The markers are designed as a
clip system, meaning they can be easily clipped onto the cable without tools and without cutting or damaging the cable. The design of the Pliogrip T2 ensures secure and durable fastening without damaging the cable. The
yellow colour and the
black print 8 ensure high readability, even under low light conditions or in complex wiring situations. The use of POM ensures high mechanical stability and resistance to mechanical stress, such as during installation or in operation.
Technology Explained Simply
The material
POM (polyoxymethylene) is a thermoplastic with high strength and wear resistance properties. It is resistant to many chemicals and suitable for use in indoor and outdoor environments. The markers are designed to open elastically and then securely close around the cable. The
number 8 on the marker serves as a unique identification number, which can be referenced in technical documentation or wiring diagrams. The
yellow colour may be used according to specific standards or company guidelines to indicate certain functions or cable types, such as control lines or auxiliary power supplies.
Compatibility and Accessories
The markers are designed for cables with an outer diameter of 3.8 to 5.3 mm, corresponding to a cross-section size of 2.5 to 6.0 mm². They are therefore compatible with standard cables in electrical and IT technology. The packaging unit contains 800 pieces, suitable for larger projects or series installations.
Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by simply clipping the marker onto the cable. No tools are required, and fastening is achieved without cutting or damaging the cable. The markers fit securely and are not easily detached, ensuring durable marking. Installation can be performed either before or after wiring, offering flexibility in the workflow.
Operational Advantages
The clear marking with the number 8 and the yellow colour facilitates cable identification during operation, especially during maintenance work or fault finding. The robust construction from POM ensures long service life and resistance to mechanical stress. The packaging unit of 800 pieces enables cost-effective procurement for larger projects. The simple tool-free installation reduces mounting time and minimizes the risk of cable damage.
