How to Read a THT Catalog Number
Many Brady label parts follow a naming convention that includes specific information about the label. The following example shows how it can be broken down:
Technology: Thermal Transfer Die Size: #5 die 1" x 0.5" Material: B-422 Polyester Quantity: Multiply by 1,000 10 x 1,000 = 10,000
THT - 5 - 422 - 10
Polyester Materials
Polyester labels are widely used for identification based on their mechanical strength, high heat tolerance, general chemical resistance, and compatibility with various protective, functional and aesthetic coatings. Brady polyester materials are designed for use in barcode labeling, traceability, regulatory and compliance, product identification, rating plates, serialization and specimen identification. An all-purpose material, polyester labels can be easily customized to perform in almost any environment.
