Armor RL GENERIC CSO APR1 110mm x 450m Black

When standard wax ribbons fail on demanding synthetic labels, this APR1 resin ribbon steps in with a formulation that bonds aggressively to films and coated stocks. The 110 mm width and 450 m length keep high-volume flat-head printers running longer between changes, while the coated-side-out winding ensures clean, consistent feeding on most thermal transfer engines.

Highlights

• High-performance resin ink delivers dense black images with an optical density above 1.8 for crisp barcodes and fine text.
• Excellent resistance to scratches, smudges, chemicals, and outdoor exposure—ideal for asset tags, automotive labels, and electronics.
• Coated side out (CSO) configuration matches the requirements of flat-head thermal transfer printers.
• 110 mm width and 450 m length reduce downtime in medium- to high-volume labeling operations.
• Compatible with synthetic substrates including PET, PVC, PP, PE, and coated papers.

In daily use

Operators appreciate the consistent release and sharp edge definition this ribbon provides, even at speeds up to 12 inches per second. Whether printing serial plates, pharmaceutical labels, or outdoor warning tags, the APR1 resin withstands handling, solvents, and UV exposure without fading or smearing. The 1-inch core fits most standard ribbon spindles, and the black color delivers maximum contrast on white or colored facestocks.
