Label, Brady M6-96-427 vinyl self-laminating, white transparent, 25.40 x 9.53 mm for cables Ø 2.00–3.00 mm

Brady M6-96-427 is a vinyl self-laminating cable label in a white-transparent finish, sized 25.40 x 9.53 mm. It is engineered to wrap around small cables with diameters from 2.00 to 3.00 mm, providing a writable surface and an extended laminate tail that protects printed or handwritten text from abrasion, moisture and oils. The label construction combines a printable writable panel with a clear overlaminate that secures text and resists environmental exposure in electrical, telecom and industrial settings.

Advantages

This vinyl self-laminating label offers durable identification on small-diameter cables thanks to its overlaminate that seals and protects markings. The white-transparent finish improves contrast for both black-ink handwriting and thermal transfer printing while maintaining visibility of cable insulation. Its compact 25.40 x 9.53 mm size is suitable for tight spaces and neat installations. The adhesive and laminate are formulated to remain stable on typical wire jackets and to resist common contaminants encountered in industrial and field environments.

Suitable for

• Labeling wires and small cables in electrical panels and junction boxes
• Identifying telecom and data cables with limited bend radius
• Marking wiring in control cabinets, machinery and instrumentation
• Field service and maintenance where abrasion and moisture protection is required

Key specifications

• Label size (approx.): 25.40 x 9.53 mm
• Designed cable diameter range: Ø 2.00–3.00 mm
• Writable area suitable for handwriting and many thermal transfer printers
• Performance: abrasion-, moisture- and oil-resistant laminate protection

How to use

Peel the label from the backing, wrap the printable area around the cable so the text-bearing panel is visible, then fold the clear laminate tail over the printed or written information to fully cover and seal it. Press the laminate firmly to ensure adhesion and remove any trapped air. For thermal transfer printing, use compatible label stock and print settings recommended by the printer manufacturer for vinyl materials. Allow ink to dry if using pens before applying the laminate.

Usage recommendations

Store labels in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For best adhesion and longevity, apply to clean, dry cable surfaces at room temperature and avoid stretching the label during application. Test print settings on a small sample if using a new printer or ribbon type to ensure legibility and proper lamination.
