1″ x 1″ (27mm x 27mm) Direct Thermal Labels – 2 Across, 5,000 Per Roll
The 1″ x 1″ (27mm x 27mm) Direct Thermal Label is an ultra-compact, double-lane (2-across) sticker roll engineered for high-density retail price tagging, small-item barcoding, pharmacy prescription marking, and jewelry or boutique labeling. Operating via direct thermal printing technology, these labels react precisely to the heated printhead of compatible desktop label printers (such as the Bixolon SLP-DX220 or XD3-40d) without requiring any ink ribbons, toner, or cartridges.
Configured in a dual-track (2-across) format to dramatically speed up print throughput and reduce total roll changeovers, each large roll delivers 5,000 individual self-adhesive stickers. They are wound on a standard 1-inch (25 mm) core and finished with a strong permanent pressure-sensitive adhesive that bonds reliably to plastic, glass, and paper products.
