News : May 2011

Silver Fox, a cable labelling solutions manufacturer, has added zero-halogen low smoke heatshrink to its product range for marking ferrules and cables. Low smoke zero-halogen (LS0H) heatshrink is flattened, printable polyolefin heat shrinkable tubing with zero halogens, excellent flame resistance and produces very little smoke.

Silver Fox cable labels and markers meet London Underground Limited Eng. Standard 1-085 A1 - the cable marking and labelling system is suitable for LUL projects as well as other applications where LS0H (low smoke zero halogen) is specified for marking cables.

All Silver Fox heatshrink and non-shrink tubing is supplied in rolls and can be easily printed using Plug’N’Play thermal printer and utilising Silver Fox labelling software Labacus Innovator. Silver Fox cable markers and labels can also be printed on both sides using patented double-sided ferrule marking system; two rolls of heat shrink tubing can be run through printer at same time and there is no limit to number of characters printed per cable marker.
