HLX Cable Marker
HLX Cable Markers are flat, non-adhesive labels that can be used to
identify large cables and wire bundles in particularly aggressive
environments. Presented as organised markers assembled onto a
reel. Cable markers can be applied post cable termination using
cable ties.
Manufactured using a specially developed radiation cross-linked
polymer. Formulated to give Low Fire Hazard properties, which allow
this product to be used in locations where fire may pose a risk to
human life, and property. Typical installations include underground
railways and mass transit.
This Cable marker is printed using thermal transfer technology.
