K-Sun LABELShop color heatshrink tube cartridges

Each month CE Pro magazine runs a column called "Neato." This column focuses in on the work electronics professionals do to transform a typical rat's nest of cabling runs behind a rack into a neat looking, professional installation.

K-Sun is a Wisconsin-based label maker company that is helping installers to keep their rack installations neat and efficient, and recently it added two new colors to its line of cartridge labeling products. The newly added products bolster its LABELShop line of heat-shrink tube cartridges to provide installers with a greater choice of colors to label all the various cable types used for a standard installation. The new black-on-green and black-on-blue 3/16-inch shrink tube cartridges offer electronics professionals an increased ability to label wires for everything from A/V, home networks and communications in racking and structured wiring panels.

The line of cartridges already offers black-on-red, yellow-and-white in a choice of sizes that includes 1/4-inch, 3/16-inch, 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch. K-Sun says its printers use a thermal transfer technology to ensure legibility, and its labeling products are resistant to UV, scratch, fade and smear resistant.
