Durable, High-Performance Electronics Industry Labels
Labeling in the electronics industry is a challenge—small labels for placement on chips, printed circuit boards
or cable wires often need to withstand harsh manufacturing processes and must perform for the entire lifespan
of the product. With a wide variety of facestocks and adhesives, Datamax-O’Neil Printer Certified Supplies
has dominated the electronic component labeling market for years; offering hundreds of quick-ship products
available for immediate shipment; and, if you don’t see the size you’re looking for, select from several hundred
additional custom materials and over 1000 unique die sizes.
Label Types
Glossy White Polyimide
Thermal transfer printable labels that are designed to endure harsh environments including high heat,
aggressive fluxes, and caustic cleaners commonly used in the manufacturing process of printed circuit
boards (PCBs) and electronic components. Materials are designed for top-side, bottom-side, or after process
identification.
Glossy White Polyester
Thermal transfer labels ideal for nameplates or serial identification labels on finished products. Other
applications include rating plates, property identification, and electronic-component marking. Glossy White
Polyester is a first-class 2 Mil Polyester that is used on the topside of a circuit board where heat exposure is
limited offering excellent solvent and scratch resistance.
Self Laminating Wire & Cable ID Film
Blank thermal transfer printable labels ideal for marking cables, wire and other surfaces that require
conformability. Unique “site-hole” technology allows virtually any printer to print the self-lam labels
accurately with minimal waste.
Semi-Gloss White Anti-Static Polyimide
Thermal transfer labels ideal for marking electronic components, and the top/bottom side of printed circuit
boards. This material is designed to withstand high temperatures and harsh chemicals. Withstands through-
hole and surface mount circuit board processes. This high-performance material is designed for applications
requiring excellent solvent and scratch resistance. Excellent material for circuit board applications requiring
an ESD material.
Matte Tan Polyimide
Thermal printable labels ideal for marking electronic components and the top/bottom side of printed circuit
boards. This material is designed to withstand high temperatures and harsh chemicals. Withstands through-
hole and surface mount circuit board processes. Matte Tan Polyimide is the most durable material for
industrial barcode applications where there may be exposure to many different solvents.
