Brady all-weather vinyl label cartridge — 0.5 in x 21 ft White, black-on-white, freezer & chemical resistant

Brady M21-500-595-WT is a durable, all-weather white vinyl label cartridge that prints crisp black text for indoor or outdoor identification with BMP21 and compatible portable printers.

This ready-to-install Brady cartridge contains continuous white vinyl label stock with a permanent acrylic adhesive and an integrated ribbon, engineered to hold up in extreme conditions from freezers to chemical-cleaning environments. The tape delivers a glossy, high-contrast black-on-white finish and bonds to a wide range of surfaces, making it suitable for industrial identification tasks like asset tagging, pipe marking, safety panels, and equipment labels.

How well does this label perform in extreme temperatures and harsh environments?

The Brady B-595 vinyl formulation is designed to remain adhered and legible in severe conditions including subzero freezers and autoclave cycles. Its permanent acrylic adhesive resists lifting on textured, powder-coated, and irregular surfaces while the printed legend endures exposure to oils and common cleaning agents.

• Rated for freezer and low-temperature use; resists cold-induced delamination
• Chemical- and grease-resistant printed surface for long-term readability
• Holds to rough, textured, or low-energy surfaces thanks to strong acrylic adhesive
• Gloss finish improves contrast for scanner and visual reading
