What are you guys using instead of Kroy shrinktube labels? - PLCS.net

Now that Kroy has closed it's factory, What are you using for shrink tube labels?
Looking for the same durability as the Kroy labels had (ie. no smudging). Please state the features you like and dislike if any.

Brady BMP (Don't remember which one) but I think most of them will do many different label medias including heat-shrink. The heat-shrink tubes are "ironed" flat on the label carrier and I find it easiest to pull the label off of the carrier by sticking a small screwdriver into the tube and then pulling of of the carrier.

Cheers

Are you set on heat shrink? Brady has self laminating labels that work very well.

we use brady wire labels and also automation direct plastic wire numbers that slip on wires.
