適切な types of cable markers can make a major difference in identification, maintenance, and long-term reliability. Whether your wires are already terminated, exposed to vibration, or likely to be reworked, the wrong marker can slip, fade, or fail when you need it most.
In this guide, you’ll learn how clip-on, slide-on, heat-shrink, tie-on, and wrap-around cable markers work, where each type fits best, and how to choose the right option for your cable run.
Cable markers identify individual wires, cables, and cable groups throughout an installation. Clear legends, numbers, or symbols help technicians trace connections, verify terminations, and complete maintenance with less risk of error.
The right cable marker also supports orderly cable management. It keeps identification visible at the point of use, whether the wire is already terminated, exposed to movement, or installed in a demanding working environment. Different types of cable markers suit different installation stages, cable sizes, and durability requirements.
Clip-on cable markers are designed for wires that are already terminated. The marker opens or clips around the cable, so there is no need to remove a terminal, connector, or cable tie before identification. This makes installation practical during maintenance, retrofits, and field rework.
The visible legend can show cable marker numbers, letters, or short circuit references, positioned where the number stays readable after the wire is dressed into the duct.
A clip-on wire marker can usually be removed, repositioned, or replaced without disturbing the cable connection. This is useful when circuits change during commissioning or when equipment is serviced.
Retention depends on the marker’s fit around the wire and the level of movement in the application. On vibrating equipment, check that the marker remains securely clipped and does not slide into a position where the legend becomes difficult to read.
Clip-on cable markers work well for:
They are less suitable where the marker must be permanently bonded to the cable or exposed to severe abrasion, chemicals, or continuous movement. In those conditions, a more secure marker construction may provide better long-term identification.
WANDU does not mould clip-on markers. Where a panel needs post-termination identification with better retention, the EC-J interlocking marker snaps onto the wire without a printer, and label cable ties cover the same job on larger bundles — see cURL Too many subrequests by single Worker invocation.

Slide-on wire markers are installed before a terminal, connector, or plug is fitted. The marker sleeve slides along the conductor and stays in position after termination. This makes it a practical choice for new control panels, machines, and harnesses where the wire can be accessed from the end.
A printable PVC marking tube covers inner diameters from 0.5 mm to 10 mm, with a wall thickness of 0.4 mm to 0.7 mm, which spans 0.2 mm² to 25 mm² of panel wiring (AWG 24 to 4). The compound is rated -40°C to 105°C and carries UL94 V-0, so it holds up against the heat rise inside a closed enclosure. Because the legend is printed into the tube rather than attached to it, there is no adhesive layer to peel. These are supplied as cURL Too many subrequests by single Worker invocation.

An interlocking cable marker uses matching sections that connect around the wire. EC-J style markers use a chevron cut, and each character is hot-stamped into the PVC surface from 0-9 and A-Z, so the legend sits in the material rather than on it. Characters arrive on a marker carrier strip and snap together one at a time, so a multi-digit wire number can be built on site with no printer in the loop. That gives a more secure fit than a loose sleeve while keeping the legend aligned — see cURL Too many subrequests by single Worker invocation. To configure this limit, refer to https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/wrangler/configuration/#limits. Choose the marker style according to the wire construction, available installation space, and required retention.
ケーブルタイの inside diameter of the cable marker sleeve should match the wire’s outside diameter, including insulation. The working rule is that ID equals the OD, or exceeds it by no more than 0.5 mm. A sleeve tighter than the wire has to be stretched over the conductor, which distorts the legend horizontally and makes the numbers wider than they are tall. One that is much looser will rotate or slide along the run, and the print stops facing the reader.

Slide-on と heat-shrink cable markers are normally fitted before a connector, terminal, or gland is installed. This gives a neat, stable result, but the marker must be selected and positioned during assembly. Removing a terminal may be necessary when the legend needs to be changed later.
Clip-on cable markers, tie-on markers, and wrap-around labels can be installed after the wire is already terminated. They suit maintenance work, completed control panels, and field identification because they reduce disassembly time. Their main limitation is that retention and durability depend on the marker design and the service environment.
