ASTAR LTO8 Horizontal Barcode Label LTO8000099 — horizontal barcode labels for LTO-8 tapes

ASTAR LTO8 Horizontal Barcode Label LTO8000099 are adhesive horizontal barcode labels made for LTO-8 data storage cartridges. These pre-cut labels fit the specified label area on LTO-8 tapes and provide a consistent, scannable barcode surface to support inventory control, automated tape library systems and manual tracking. The material and adhesive are selected for reliable adhesion to cartridge plastic while maintaining barcode contrast for optical scanners.

Advantages

These horizontal barcode labels deliver uniform alignment and sizing for consistent scan performance. The pre-cut format reduces application time and ensures repeatable placement across multiple cartridges. The adhesive backing is formulated to adhere securely to tape cartridge shells while allowing clean application without bubbling. The label face produces high-contrast barcodes compatible with common barcode readers used in data centres and tape libraries.

How to use

Clean the cartridge label area to remove dust, oil or residue and allow it to dry. Peel a single pre-cut label from its backing and align it horizontally with the cartridge's designated label zone. Apply the label starting from one edge and press firmly across the surface to avoid air pockets. Ensure the barcode is printed or applied centrally on the label face and allow any printing ink to dry fully before placing cartridges back into library systems or storage racks.

Recommendations

Use labels in controlled environments to avoid contamination during application. For reliable long-term identification, store cartridges at recommended temperature and humidity ranges and verify barcode readability after application. Test a sample label with your barcode scanner and printer settings before large-scale application.
