Ideal for labeling pipes, hoses and wires

I've been using the Brother P-Touch Label Printer to label a variety of power and network cables, but I needed something faster to print different colors for unfinished basement tubing, wire and... to label cables. Along with retractable Sharpie ultra-fine permanent markers and 3 colored markers (1735794), I was able to quickly mark cold (blue marker) and hot (red marker) water pipes and indicate where they went. The same applies to the inlet and outlet of the reverse osmosis system for the sink and refrigerator. Water bypass pipes to standby sump pumps and sprinklers. The use cases are endless. Advantages: + Part of the label is above the cable jacket (easier to distinguish between overloaded cables). Labels for other similar products are under the hinge, which some might prefer. + The hinge bodies were free from defects. Cons: + Part of the tag is a bit small, requires a fine point marker to write. You can use tape or a P-Touch label to increase the writing surface.

Pros
  • Cable Management
Cons
