Adhesive Model Number Metal Labels
A small adhesive label built to carry a model number or serial field on a housing that’s already painted or sealed.
Description
Where does a model number go on a housing that’s already painted and sealed? This adhesive label carries that data field without a drilled hole. Reprinting after the fact usually means replacing the whole part.
Build options
Aluminum and stainless steel are common bases, in matte or brushed finish so printed or laser-marked text stays readable. Etching is also used where the data doesn’t change often. Laser marking suits a number that changes between production runs.
Common dimensions
Sizes run 40x20mm and 60x30mm, in 0.2-1mm stock with a thin adhesive backing already applied. Smaller custom formats fit tighter spaces. Thickness can go up slightly where the field carries more than one line of data.
Fit & applications
This label carries model and spec data on:
- Equipment identification plates
- Appliance model and rating fields
- Spec labels needing long-term legibility
- Housings where the field may repeat per unit
