Thermal transfer printing color ribbons for shrinkable t-shirt printing have been designed to provide maximum print clarity and durability. The material is ready to use immediately after printing, without any additional marking fixation operations. To achieve the best possible print, it is necessary to use the appropriate color ribbon in combination with the appropriate material. HellermannTyton ribbons have been specially developed to provide maximum print clarity and resistance. The highest aging resistance and chemical resistance of the print on shrinkable t-shirts can be achieved by using the TTRC+ ribbon. It has a special patented dye with excellent UV resistance. This dye contains a solvent that allows slow penetration into the material after printing, so that after a period of 48 to 72 hours, excellent chemical resistance is ensured. It meets the following standards: MIL-STD-202G (method 215J), BS 4G 198-3 (type 11A), and Def. Stan. 59-97 Issue 3 Type 2a for shrunk labels. Particular print clarity and abrasion resistance can be achieved using the TTDTHOUT ribbon. It meets the following standards: MIL-STD-202G (method 215J) for shrunk and non-shrunk labels, BS 4G 198-3 (type 11A), and Def. Stan. 59-97 Issue 3 Type 2a for shrunk labels. Both ribbons are used for printing on white or yellow shrinkable t-shirts, especially in the railway, defense, and medical industries. The TT822OUT8 ribbon is designed for printing on black shrinkable materials. It has a unique silver-gray color that provides excellent contrast on black material. In applications where even greater contrast is needed, the TTRW ribbon in white can be used. Both of the above color ribbons meet the MIL-STD-202G (method 215J) standard for shrunk labels. Properties: Thermal transfer color ribbons for durable and legible labeling on labels. The color ribbons have been specially designed to achieve optimal printing on recommended materials. Thermal transfer printing technology is based on heating specific points in the thermal transfer head. This allows for very precise transfer of dye from the color ribbon to the surface of the printed material.
