With a 3:1 shrink ratio that conforms to irregular shapes and varying wire diameters, this Brady PermaSleeve heat-shrink label cartridge delivers permanent wire and cable identification in demanding environments. The white polyolefin material withstands extreme temperatures from -55°C to 135°C and resists abrasion, chemicals, fuels, oils, weather, and UV light, ensuring legibility in the harshest conditions. Compatible with Brady BMP51, BMP53, and M511 label printers, the cartridge contains one roll of 38.1 mm wide, 2.13 m long heat-shrink tubing with a matte finish for easy printing and reading.

Overview

This PermaSleeve cartridge is designed for professionals who need durable, long-lasting labels for electrical, data communications, and industrial applications. The heat-shrink polyolefin sleeve slides over a wire or cable and shrinks snugly when heated to a minimum of 120°C, creating a permanent, non-adhesive marker that won't peel or fall off. The white matte surface provides high contrast for printed text, barcodes, or graphics, making identification quick and reliable.
