Cable Labelling and Marking: For Better Safety and Organisation
A well-thought-out cable labelling scheme protects against costly troubleshooting and dangerous mistakes. In control cabinets, switches, and industrial systems, unmarked cables increase the risk of faulty switching that, in the worst case, put people in danger and damage systems. HELUKABEL offers professional solutions for marking cables that establish oder and allow for standardised documentation.

The right cable marking for every application
HELUKABEL has different systems for labelling cables: Labelling rings are especially suited for round cables and can be easily pushed into place. Cable markers are available as self-adhesive labels or as clips that can be installed without tools. Every cable label must be suited to the environment. In industrial environments, we recommend temperature and chemical resistant materials, while in office buildings, simpler solutions will suffice.

What to pay attention to when labelling cables
Before installing self-adhesive cable labels, the surface must be clean, dry, and free of greases. Position the marking so that it will remain legible after installation. For longer cable lengths, you should label the cable at multiple locations. Make sure that there is sufficient contrast between the label and the background. The labelling must adhere strongly and must not shift.
FAQ
Marking rings are optimal for round cables and can be quickly pushed into place. Self-adhesive cable markers are equally suited for flat and round cables. For cables in moving applications, we recommend cable marking clip variations that remain in place.
HELUKABEL offers materials for different requirements: from simple labels for office environments to solutions suited for industrial environments that can withstand temperatures from -40 to +150°C, oils, solvents, and UV radiation over long periods.
