Serial number labels

RS sell them down to 25.4x10mm, will they do? They are silver and come on A4 sheets. If you find any smaller let me know, I am looking for some too.

My former employer used to cut the perforated edges off tractor-feed labels and run them through a laser printer. I don't recommend this, since there's a risk of destroying the printer, but they got away with it.

Inquisitive, eh? :-)

Commonly sold through large electrical supply houses (Anixter, Graybar, etc.); not sold direct. Not likely that you'll get even a "retail" price out of Brady, IME.

From buying some of their self-laminating laser poly labels (slightly more exotic), their cost is fairly high - I'd guess these are probably USD$30-60 for a 100-sheet box. At your dimensions, that's probably

Thanks, perfect- except that Brady Europe won't even tell me who sells them here or how much they cost, until I fill in a form giving my dog's dental records and my maternal great-grandmother's preferred sexual position.

You shouldn't look on that as a problem- more of an opportunity to show some creativity. I have a whole distinct persona that exists only to answer the invasive personal questions used by auditors to verify trade rag subscriptions. Eye color, birthdate, city of birth etc. are all consistent but wrong. If you have a lot of this at work, you can create a cyber-gofer name so you'll know instantly when they're calling.

That's pretty small. A while ago I had custom labels made by Cils (UK),

You can ask them to send some samples. They have all kinds of labels, different material, special adhesive types etcetera.

With 15mm x 5mm you need good software as well, and load your printer very carefully - or else the alignment will be terrible. I had larger labels, with pre-printed boxes, and even when the registration is off by 0.5mm it already looks a bit shabby. I ended up writing my own software, where I could 'tune' the printed fields in steps of 0.1mm.

OK that would be someone like Newey and Ayre in the UK, I'll try them.

I just use normal laser labels and print multiple "mini labels" on each one by setting up a table with no borders. Cut/score them with a hobby/stanley knife.

Depending on your original label size and the "mini label" size you can get hundreds on an A4 page.

Is that because of US national security paranoia ?

In the days when I still did pcb lay-ups, I got Brady stuff here.

Wow. Frank wrote custom software to do something that any good word processor can do.

For his next trick he will whitle a toothpick out of a two by four.
