Thermal Transfer Ribbon

T 507 Sw

Resin
Flat-Head

is a resin quality for flat-head printers that can be used flexibly on almost all materials. It is characterised by a very good print quality: fine lines and small type can be printed with high resolution, the print is very contrasty. Even on vellum papers, larger colour areas are homogeneous and small elements are still well resolved.

As a resin grade, the T 507 Sw is of course primarily designed for printing film labels.[nbsp] It can be used in the food sector and can be used for printing UL-certified labels. On a poly-olefin material, the print is certified to BS5609 section III for GHS labelling.

Mechanical resistance to smudging and scratching is very high and the print also has high resistance to erasing and will not peel off with tape.

The print has a high resistance to alcohol, diesel and oil, but is[nbsp] not resistant to petrol, brake fluid, hydraulic oil and organic solvents.[nbsp] Temperatures of up to 160° with simultaneous friction cannot harm it.

The classic areas of application are the printing of type plates, labelling in the field of electrical installations and all high-quality and durable labels made of paper and film.
