White Self-Adhesive Direct Thermal Barcode Labels – 1,000 Labels per Roll, Minimum Order 32 Rolls, 1-Inch or 40mm Core Options

The 76 x 50mm Direct Thermal Barcode Labels, commonly requested as 3 x 2 inch thermal labels, are intended for barcode printing, product identification, inventory management, warehouse operations and logistics applications.

Each roll contains 1,000 labels, with a minimum order quantity of 32 rolls (32,000 labels).

These white self-adhesive labels use heat-sensitive direct thermal paper, allowing compatible barcode printers to print without ink, toner or thermal transfer ribbons.

The 76 x 50mm label format provides space for compatible 1D and 2D barcodes, product descriptions, SKU numbers, inventory references and other identification information.

Two core sizes may be requested: 1 inch (25.4mm) or 40mm, subject to supplier confirmation and printer compatibility.

76 x 50mm / 3 x 2 Inch Label Size

The requested label dimensions are approximately 3 inches wide and 2 inches high.

For accurate ordering:

• 76 x 50mm: Nominal metric specification
• 3 x 2 Inches: Exact conversion of 76.2 x 50.8mm

These dimensions are close but not mathematically identical.

For applications requiring precise die-cut dimensions, the customer should confirm whether the required size is 76 x 50mm or exactly 76.2 x 50.8mm.

The label format may accommodate:

• Product Barcodes
• SKU and Item Numbers
• Product Descriptions
• Inventory References
• Warehouse Location Codes
• Batch Numbers
• QR Codes
• Data Matrix Codes
• Retail Pricing Information
• Internal Tracking References

The printable content depends on the barcode format, printer resolution and label design.

Direct Thermal Printing Without Ribbon

Direct thermal labels use a heat-sensitive coating that reacts to the thermal printhead.

This printing method does not require a separate thermal transfer ribbon.

It is commonly used for compatible:

• Product Labels
• Warehouse Labels
• Inventory Labels
• Carton Identification
• Retail Labels
• Short-Term Logistics Labels
• Internal Tracking Labels

Direct thermal printing may be suitable where the expected label life and operating conditions match the properties of thermal paper.

Important: Standard direct thermal labels may fade or become discoloured when exposed to heat, direct sunlight, friction or certain chemicals.

For applications requiring extended durability, thermal transfer labels may be more appropriate.

1,000 Labels per Roll

Each requested roll contains 1,000 individual labels.

This format may be suitable for businesses requiring regular barcode printing.

The final roll outside diameter depends on:

• Label Thickness
• Backing Liner Thickness
• Label Gap
• Core Diameter
• Roll Winding

Customers should confirm the printer's maximum supported roll diameter before ordering.

A roll containing 1,000 labels may be too large for the internal media compartment of some desktop printers.

1-Inch or 40mm Core Options

Two core diameters are requested.

1-Inch Core – 25.4mm

This core size may be suitable for compatible desktop or other barcode printers that accept 25.4mm media cores.

40mm Core

This is a separate core size that may be suitable for printers or external media holders designed to accommodate it.

A 40mm core is not equivalent to a 1-inch core.

The selected core diameter must be confirmed before production or order acceptance.

Minimum Order Quantity – 32 Rolls

The requested minimum order quantity is 32 rolls.

Label Size: 76 x 50mm
Printing Method: Direct Thermal
Labels per Roll: 1,000
Minimum Order: 32 Rolls
Total Labels: 32,000

Customers requiring additional quantities may request a quotation based on their expected consumption.

The final price depends on material, adhesive, core diameter, production specifications and quantity.

Barcode Printer Compatibility

These labels are intended for direct thermal barcode printers that support the required media width, roll diameter and core size.

Potential compatible printer families include suitable models from:

• Zebra
• TSC
• Honeywell
• Argox
• SATO
• BIXOLON
• GoDEX
• Other Compatible Barcode Printer Manufacturers

Compatibility must be verified using the exact printer model.

Before ordering, customers should confirm:

• Maximum Supported Media Width
• Maximum Roll Outside Diameter
• Supported Core Diameter
• Direct Thermal Printing Capability
• Label Gap and Sensor Configuration
• Media Loading Direction
• Required Barcode Resolution

Brand compatibility alone does not establish that a particular printer can accept the supplied roll.

Barcode and QR Code Printing

The labels may be used to print compatible barcode formats, including:

• Code 128
• Code 39
• EAN-13
• UPC
• QR Code
• Data Matrix

Barcode readability depends on the print resolution, barcode dimensions, label quality, printer settings and scanning equipment.

Customers should test the required barcode layout before committing to bulk use.

Self-Adhesive Label Applications

The labels are intended to adhere to compatible product packaging, cartons and other surfaces.

Potential applications include:

• Product Identification
• Warehouse Inventory
• Retail Stock Labels
• Carton and Box Identification
• Internal Logistics Tracking
• Manufacturing References
• E-Commerce Order Processing
• Storage Bin Identification

Adhesive performance depends on the material formulation, surface condition, temperature and application environment.

Special requirements such as removable adhesive, freezer-grade adhesive or high-temperature resistance must be specified separately.

Applications

Retail and Supermarkets

Suitable for compatible product barcode labels, SKU identification and price-related information.

Warehousing and Inventory

Used for stock identification, bin references, carton labels and inventory movement records.

Logistics and Distribution

Supports compatible package identification, dispatch references and internal tracking.

Manufacturing

May be used for component identification, production references and work-in-progress labelling.

E-Commerce

Supports product identification, stockroom organisation and internal order-processing workflows.

Office and Administration

Suitable for compatible filing, storage and internal asset-identification requirements.

Direct Thermal vs Thermal Transfer Labels

Direct thermal labels use heat-sensitive paper and do not require a ribbon.

Thermal transfer labels require a suitable thermal transfer ribbon and compatible label material.

Direct thermal printing may be appropriate for applications where the expected label life is relatively short and environmental exposure is limited.

Thermal transfer printing may be preferable for longer-term identification or applications requiring improved resistance to handling and environmental conditions.

The correct printing method should be selected according to the intended application.
