Compatible Brother HSe-231 Heat Shrink Tube Label – 12mm Black on White for Cable & Wire Identification | theinksupply

Create durable and professional cable identification with the Compatible Brother HSe-231 Heat Shrink Tube Label from theinksupply. Specially designed for permanent identification of cables and wires, HSe-231 uses a heat-shrinkable tube material that contracts when heated, creating a secure and neat fit around the cable.

Unlike standard adhesive label tapes that are wrapped around a cable, HSe-231 is designed to shrink directly around the cable when heat is applied. This provides a clean, professional and highly durable identification solution for electrical installations, network cabling, telecommunications, server rooms, industrial wiring and other technical applications.

How Does HSe-231 Work?

HSe-231 works differently from conventional Brother TZe label tapes.

Simply:

1. Print your required identification onto the HSe-231 tube.
2. Cut the printed section to the required length.
3. Insert the cable or wire through the tube.
4. Apply heat evenly using an appropriate heat source.
5. The tube contracts around the cable, creating a secure and professional identification marker.

Important: HSe-231 should be installed onto the cable before the cable ends or connectors prevent the tube from being slipped over the cable.

HSe-231 vs TZe-FX231 – Which Should You Choose?

Both products are designed for cable identification, but they work differently.

HSe-231 – Heat Shrink Tube

HSe-231 slides over the cable and shrinks around it when heated.

Best for:

✔ Permanent cable identification
✔ Electrical installations
✔ Professional wiring projects
✔ New cable installations
✔ Applications requiring a clean, integrated finish

TZe-FX231 – Flexible ID Tape

TZe-FX231 is a flexible adhesive label that wraps around the outside of an existing cable.

Best for:

✔ Existing cables that cannot be disconnected
✔ Network and IT cable identification
✔ Applications where heat shrinking is impractical
✔ Quick cable labelling

If the cable is already connected and cannot be passed through a heat shrink tube, TZe-FX231 Flexible ID Tape may be the more suitable option.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is HSe-231 used for?

HSe-231 is a printable heat shrink tube designed primarily for marking and identifying cables and wires. Once printed, it is placed over the cable and heated so that the tube contracts securely around it.

Does HSe-231 require heat?

Yes. After printing and positioning the tube over your cable, heat must be applied to shrink the tube around the cable.

Can I use HSe-231 like a normal adhesive label?

No. HSe-231 is designed as a heat shrink tube rather than a conventional flat adhesive label. For ordinary surface labelling, use a compatible Brother TZe tape instead.

What is the difference between HSe-231 and TZe-FX231?

HSe-231: Heat shrink tube that is placed over the cable and shrunk using heat.

TZe-FX231: Flexible laminated adhesive tape that wraps around the outside of the cable.

HSe-231 generally provides a more integrated and permanent cable marking solution, while TZe-FX231 is more convenient for cables that are already installed.

Is this an original Brother product?

No. This is a premium compatible HSe-231 heat shrink tube manufactured by a third-party manufacturer and designed for supported Brother P-touch label printers.
