The LF1B 5.7x11mm white label strip from Ses-Sterling is a labelling system for cables and lines in the field of electrical and IT installation. It is made of PET material and is specifically designed for labelling cables with a cross-section of 1.5 to 2.5 mm². The printable area measures 5.7 mm in width and 11 mm in height, providing sufficient space for clear, legible labelling. The labels are designed for use with a laser printer, ensuring sharp, durable printing. The label colour is white, which enables good readability of the print colour and integrates well into standardised labelling systems.

Applications

The LF1B label strip is used in professional environments for labelling cables and lines, particularly in electrical installation, building automation, and IT infrastructures. It is suitable for labelling cables in enclosures, distribution boxes, or in cabling areas in server rooms. The use of PET material ensures high mechanical strength and resistance to environmental influences, making it suitable for use in industrial and technical installations.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The labels are designed as a tear-off system, with 60 individual labels arranged on one sheet. This enables efficient and economical processing, as multiple labels can be printed at once and then torn off individually. The material thickness and surface texture of the PET material ensure good adhesion of the laser printer toner particles, so the labelling remains clearly readable even under mechanical stress or in humid environments. The white colour of the label enhances the contrast of the print colour and facilitates visual identification.

Technology Explained Simply

The label is made of PET film material, known for its high strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. PET is a synthetic polymer commonly used in industry for labelling systems because it is resistant to moisture, UV radiation, and mechanical stress. Labelling is done using a laser printer, which deposits toner particles onto the material. These toner particles are fixed to the PET material by the heat of the printer, creating a durable and wear-resistant label. The printable area of 5.7x11 mm provides sufficient space for labelling such as cable designations, numbers, or functions.

Compatibility and Accessories

The LF1B label strip is specifically developed for use with laser printers. No special accessories are required, as the labels can be inserted directly into the printer. Use with inkjet printers is not intended, as the PET material is not optimised for inkjet printing. The labels are designed for cable cross-sections of 1.5 to 2.5 mm², making them suitable for a wide range of standard cables in electrical and IT technology. The packaging contains 10 sheets, each with 60 labels.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is done by simply tearing the label from the sheet and then wrapping or sticking it onto the cable to be labelled. The labels are designed to be easily detached from the backing without affecting print quality. Adhesion to the cable is achieved through mechanical anchoring of the label in the cable sheath, with the material strength of the PET ensuring secure fastening. No additional adhesive or adhesive film is required.

Operational Advantages

Using the LF1B label strip provides an efficient and reliable labelling solution. Laser printer compatibility enables high print quality and long-lasting labelling. The material strength of the PET ensures a long service life for the labels, even under industrial conditions. The pre-arranged layout of 60 labels per sheet and packaging with 10 sheets simplifies storage and daily use. The white colour supports readability and is commonly used in standardised labelling systems.
