BRADY BMP51/BMP53/M511 FreezerBondz Labels - 25.4 mm x 12.7 mm, White, 500 Labels

Labeling samples destined for cryogenic storage presents a unique challenge: ordinary labels become brittle, detach, or smear under extreme cold, compromising sample identification. The BRADY FreezerBondz B-490 label cartridge for BMP51, BMP53, and M511 printers solves this problem with a specialized polyester material engineered to withstand temperatures from -196°C to 110°C, including direct immersion in liquid nitrogen.

Who is it for

These labels are ideal for laboratory technicians, researchers, and biobank managers who need durable, legible identification for vials, tubes, and other containers stored in ultra-low temperature freezers, cryogenic dewars, or liquid nitrogen tanks. They are also suitable for general industrial labeling where resistance to chemicals, abrasion, and weathering is required.

Tips

For best results, ensure labels are applied to clean, dry surfaces at room temperature before exposing to extreme cold. Allow printed labels to dry completely before cryogenic storage. Use with Brady's recommended ribbon (if applicable) and printer settings for optimal print quality and durability.
