Frequently Asked Questions
Do these labels require a thermal transfer ribbon?
No. These are direct thermal labels, so a compatible direct thermal printer images them without ink, toner, or ribbon, simplifying consumable management at the bench.
What temperatures can the adhesive withstand?
The cryogenic-grade adhesive is formulated for ultra-low freezers and liquid nitrogen storage, maintaining bond through repeated freeze-thaw handling. Apply to clean, dry surfaces at room temperature before freezing for best adhesion.
Which size suits 1.5mL microcentrifuge tubes?
The 9.5mm dots (LTC-95 series) are sized for tube caps, while 27x13mm and 38x13mm formats wrap the tube body or cryogenic vials. Choose by surface and label-text requirements.
Are color options available for sample categorization?
Yes. Multiple formats ship in white, red, orange, green, blue, and yellow, enabling rapid visual sorting of sample types, study groups, or storage dates across racks and boxes.
