Polyester (PET) cable labels have a wide range of applications in the field of cable identification due to their unique material properties. The following are the main characteristics of PET cable labels:


Excellent physical performance:

Moderate hardness and brittleness: PET material has good hardness and brittleness, making the label less likely to deform or be damaged during pasting and use.

High strength: PET labels have high tensile and impact strength, 3-5 times that of other films, and can withstand certain external forces without breaking.

Folding resistance: PET material has good folding resistance and can maintain its integrity after multiple bending and folding.

Excellent weather resistance:

High temperature resistance: PET labels can be used in certain high-temperature environments, usually able to withstand temperatures below 200 degrees Celsius, and can even withstand temperatures up to 150 ° C in short-term use.

Low temperature resistance: PET labels can maintain their mechanical properties even in low temperature environments, and can usually be used normally at temperatures as low as -70 ° C.

Chemical corrosion resistance: PET labels are resistant to grease, dilute acids, dilute alkalis, and most solvents, and can maintain their stability in harsh chemical environments.

Good waterproof and oil resistant performance:

Low permeability of gas and water vapor: PET labels have excellent waterproof performance, which can effectively prevent the invasion of moisture and dampness.

Oil resistance: The surface of the label is not easily contaminated by oil and is suitable for use in oily environments.

High transparency and good glossiness:

Transparency: PET labels have high transparency and can clearly display the information on the label.

Glossiness: The label surface has good glossiness, which can enhance the overall aesthetics of the cable.

Environmental Protection and Safety:

Non toxic and odorless: PET material is non-toxic and odorless, meeting environmental requirements, and can be directly used in fields such as food packaging.

Health and safety: PET labels do not release harmful substances during use and are harmless to the human body.

Strong adaptability:

Strong processability: PET labels can be cut, printed, and pasted as needed to meet different cable identification requirements.

Multiple colors and specifications to choose from: PET labels come in a variety of colors and specifications, which can be selected according to actual needs.

Easy to identify and track:

Clear printing: The surface coating of PET labels is conducive to ink adhesion and can print clear and durable identification information.

Variable information printing: With the development of variable information printing equipment, PET labels can print variable information including text, barcodes, data, batches, etc., which facilitates cable identification and tracking.


In summary, PET cable labels have excellent physical properties, excellent weather resistance, good waterproof and oil resistant performance, high transparency and glossiness, environmental protection and safety, and strong adaptability. These characteristics make PET cable labels one of the preferred materials in the field of cable identification.
