WHEN ARE YOU MARKING YOUR WIRES?

WHAT IS THE RIGHT SIZE?

The size of the wire determines the length of the self-laminating/wrap-around marker or the diameter of the sleeve to be used. Most wrap-around styles can be used for a range of sizes.

Finding the correct label height for your self-laminating labelsIf you know your wire diameter or wire circumference, you can easily determine the correct label height by using the formula below.

Step 1: Wire Diameter x 3.14 (pi) = Wire Circumference

Step 2: Wire Circumference x 1.5 (allowing label to wrap 1.5 times around wire) = Total Label Height

WILL THE WIRE BE EXPOSED TO HARSH ENVIRONMENTS?

For optimal performance and readability, it’s important to select a wire marker material that will withstand the conditions of its application. Some factors to consider:

BMP®21-Plus Label Printer • Print variable legends as needed • Extensive array of label sizes for every application• Flexibility of printing legends on demand• Ideal for applications requiring long legends with multiple characters

HOW WILL YOU PRINT YOUR WIRE MARKERS?
