Top Coated Direct Thermal Labels on a 1″ core with a 4″ outer diameter.

Top coated labels are a good choice if your label requires extra protection from markings or scuffing that can happen during transit.

These labels are also perforated for easy tearing and hand application. Perforation refers to a row of small holes punched into the liner in between each label.

Labels on a 1″ core will only work in a desktop printer. These printers are small enough to fit on a desk or table without taking up too much space. They are best suited for low to moderate volume work, generally a few hundred labels per day, making them a great choice for small to medium sized businesses.

Direct thermal labels do not require a ribbon to print. The ink is already embedded within the label material, which appears when heat from the print head causes a chemical reaction.

The adhesive for this label is a permanent general purpose adhesive. This particular adhesive is formulated for a one-time application that creates a permanent bond between the label and the surface it is applied to. We recommend that these labels are applied in a dry environment. The minimum application temperature is 35 degrees. The service temperature of the label once applied ranges from 5 to 120 degrees. This adhesive is perfect for application to corrugated cardboard, poly bags, plastic totes, plywood, shrink-wrap, and more.
