There’s no doubt that for electricians, labels are a critical element of the job. A lack of labelling or illegible labels could prove costly to the safety and efficiency of a project - a risk that could damage the reputation of a professional tradesman.

Due to the complexity of the work undertaken by electricians and the level of compliance required, labels need to meet a long list of requirements and be tough enough for the job in hand.

We’ve recently relaunched our P-touch Pro Tape range, providing durable, flexible and cost-effective labelling solutions for electricians. Available in multiple widths and colours, to help with wiring regulation compliance.

The Pro Tape range can be used by electricians to label signs and notices with general warnings, control gear and switch gear, electrical trunking and conduits, contact details, cables and cabling, lighting, solar panels, electrical car charging points, distribution boards or consumer units, electrical sockets and PAT testing.

Stronger for longer

In the electrical industry, labels are exposed to tough environments. Designed to stay intact on smooth, textured and powder-coated surfaces, our strong adhesive tape offers three times more strength on textured surfaces on average compared to Brother’s standard tape, based on results from independent testing. This makes the tape ideal for electric panel identification.

Professional labels covered

The strong adhesive tape is part of Brother’s recently relaunched P-touch Pro Tape range, offering solutions for all of your professional labelling needs. The range consists of six other tapes designed for a wide range of applications and environments:

Flexible ID laminated tape created for cable wrap and flags
Heat shrink tube made of special non-adhesive tape that grips to the cable when shrunk down
Flag die-cut non-laminated label ideal for fibre optic and other thin cables
Self-laminating tape allows printed labels to be protected and permanently sealed with a laminated layer overwrap. Ideal for cables including larger diameter CAT6A
Security laminated tape for added reassurance, visibly shows if the label has been tampered with and cannot be reapplied once peeled
Stencil tape suitable for industrial markets, the tape has a thermal sensitive layer that masks ink or special fluids to directly mark components or parts

Staying labelled. Every time

Brother P-touch laminated labels have undergone a series of vigorous tests to prove they will remain in place and stay legible when exposed to abrasion, chemical and temperature extremes. Our flexible ID tape and self-laminating tapes have specially formulated adhesive to wrap securely around curved surfaces with a minimum diameter of 3mm. The Pro Tape has been designed to be a perfect team with our range of labelling devices for electricians.

Opting for a Brother genuine supply label tape means you can be reassured they will deliver the best possible results together - which are compliant and efficient.
