Frequently Asked Questions
What ribbon is required to print Brady THT-14-423-10 labels?
Brady B-423 polyester labels require a thermal transfer ribbon. Use part number IP-R6002 for the BradyPrinter i5100 or BRADY IP® Series Label Printer. For other compatible Brady printers, use R6002. Do not attempt to print without a ribbon — direct thermal printing will not produce acceptable results on this material.
What printers are compatible with THT-14-423-10?
THT-14-423-10 is designed for Brady printers with a 3-inch core, including the BradyPrinter i5100 and other Brady THT-compatible label printers. Check Brady's label/printer compatibility guide or contact MTE Solutions to confirm compatibility with your specific printer model.
Are these labels suitable for PCB assembly reflow processes?
Yes — the B-423 permanent polyester material has a service temperature range of -70°C to +110°C, which covers standard PCB operating environments. For labels applied prior to reflow soldering (which can exceed 250°C peak), verify suitability with Brady's material specifications for your specific process temperatures.
Are THT-14-423-10 labels halogen-free?
Yes — Brady B-423 polyester meets the halogen-free material requirements per DIN VDE 0472 Part 815, making these labels suitable for use in halogen-restricted electronics assemblies and products.
What is the difference between THT-14-423-10 and other Brady THT series labels?
The THT-14-423-10 uses Brady's B-423 permanent polyester material in a 0.2" x 0.65" format for compact component and barcode labeling. Other THT series labels use different materials (vinyl, nylon, polyimide), sizes, and adhesive types optimized for different applications such as wire marking, heat-shrink tubing, or high-temperature environments. Contact MTE Solutions for help selecting the right Brady label material for your application.
