S466 Static Safe Polyimide Label is a performance thermal transfer printable label designed for extreme electronics manufacturing environments. Built on 1 mil polyimide film with a gloss white topcoat and a permanent acrylic adhesive, this label is engineered for reliable identification through soldering, reflow, and other temperature processes while minimizing static generation during application. Key benefits Heat and process resistant: Topcoat and polyimide film retain print integrity through temperature reflow and wave solder processes, with minimal smearing even immediately after exposure. Staticsafe handling: Low electrostatic charge generation when peeled from the liner, making the label suitable for use on staticsensitive circuit boards and in ESDcontrolled work areas. Durable adhesion and chemical resistance: Permanent acrylic adhesive adheres to clean, dry surfaces and maintains bond under heat and solvent exposure typical in electronics assembly. Sharp, longlasting prints: coated surface accepts thermal transfer ribbon for smudgeresistant, contrast printing that withstands abrasion and cleaning solvents. Wide printer and ribbon compatibility: Works with common thermal transfer desktop and industrial printers and with approved ribbon formulations for conversion and print durability. Key specifications Material: 1 mil polyimide film with gloss white topcoat Adhesive: Permanent acrylic Print method: Thermal transfer required Static generation: Low charge when removed from liner; suitable for ESDsensitive applications Common printer compatibility: thermal transfer printers from major manufacturers including Zebra, Honeywell, Datamax, Intermec, Sato, and TSC Compatible ribbons: Ricoh B110CR series, Armor AXR7 series, Armor AXR8, Armor JPP1, Union Chemicar US300, DNP 510 and similar thermal transfer ribbons Practical applications ESDsensitive circuit board labeling: Apply directly to staticsensitive boards and assemblies for part identification, revision tracking, or process control through wave solder and reflow. Processtolerant warning and tags: Durable identification that remains legible after exposure to temperatures and common solvents used in manufacturing. Asset and component tracking in electronics production: Durable, lowcharge labels for tracking boards, fixtures, and small components in ESDcontrolled areas. Compatibility and use notes Requires thermal transfer ribbon for printing. Use recommended ribbon formulations for print density and durability. Apply to clean, dry surfaces for adhesive performance. Compatible with most thermal transfer desktop and industrial printers from major manufacturers listed above. S466 offers a practical labeling solution where heat resistance, print durability, and low static generation are required for reliable identification in electronics manufacturing and assembly environments.
