There are four main questions to ask when beginning the process of marking wires. These questions will help you select a wire marker that best suits your needs.
Before Termination: Sleeve markers can only be used before termination because they must be slipped over the open end of the wire. These non-adhesive markers provide flexibility as they can be moved prior to being heat-shrunk. Once shrunk, these markers will provide a permanent marker which will stand up to harsh environments.
PermaSleeve® heat-shrink markers fit snugly around wires for maximum insulation protection and permanent identification
After Termination: Self-laminating wire markers or wrap-around markers can be used either before or after termination. When using a wrap-around marker, the legend is visible from all sides since the marker completely wraps around the wire. A self-laminating marker is a special type of wrap around marker which has a clear portion that will wrap around and laminate the legend. This ensures that the legend is protected from spills and scratches.
Self-laminating wire markers provide long-lasting protection for custom-printed identification.
The size of the wire determines the length of the self-laminating/wrap-around marker or the diameter of
the sleeve to be used. Most wrap-around styles can be used for a range of sizes. Brady's broad product
offering will meet all your wire identification
needs. Brady wrap-around markers can accommodate various gauges of wires.
