Thread Starter |  Cable labelling.....
not very exciting, but very important. So I have one of those mini printers that print white labels with black characters..... now I have a bunch of gluey gunk all over my leads after 7 months. How can I label these up nicely and clearly for the dark. |

Use the same labeling system; just use clear heat shrink tubing over them. Some manufacturers make 4:1 heat shrink so you don't have to remove the XLR connector.

Alpha made it in the past, but discontinued it a little while ago... They still make 2:1 and 3:1 ratio shrink tubing. Here are a few that still manufacture 4:1 stuff: Zeus - PTFE* 4:1 Heat Shrink Tubing - 4:1 Shrink Ratio Over-expanded Flexible Flame ******ant Polyolefin Tubing QUALTEK HEAT SHRINK TUBING ABL Electronics, Inc. -Shrinkable Tubing Adhesive Heat Shrink : BuyHeatShrink.com : Polyolefin Tubing SH277 4:1 Shrinkable Polyolefin Tubing 4:1 Ratio Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tube, Dual Wall, Flexible, Adhesive Lined Polyolefiln Tube Electro Insulation Corporation - Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tubing I'm not sure if everyone makes 4:1 in clear. I hope this helps! |

Turns out that only the last company listed makes it in clear. Rich |
