All Brady ribbons are developed to meet the performance requirements of the materials to be printed. The reason for this is that the
bond between the ribbon and the label is critical to the success of the legend permanence. Brady offers a complete line of ribbons
that are designed to cover all your label application requirements.
Please refer to Ribbon/Material Cross Reference Chart on the following page to determine the appropriate
ribbon/material combination.
How to find out how many labels per THT ribbon:
Our THT ribbons are 984 feet long.
984 ft x 12 inches = 11,808 inches
11,808 divided by label vertical repeat = labels
per ribbon.
To find your vertical repeat, see Index starting on
page 84. Use column D for your vertical repeat.
