Product Overview
BRL-110-BK (Item No. BRL-110-13) is a black thermal-transfer ribbon, 110 mm wide with a continuous length of 300 m, in the BRL cryogenic ribbon category. A thermal-transfer ribbon is not a label itself but a printing consumable: the printhead transfers the ink from the ribbon onto the cryogenic label face stock, forming low-temperature-resistant barcodes and text.
The page gallery shows two rolls of black ribbon with the note "scratch-resistant, abrasion-resistant, low-temperature resistant, clear printing"; both the page name and the gallery specify 110 mm × 300 m. The specifications section lists the application as "laboratory cryogenic label printing, biobank identification," compatible printers as MACH4S / EOS3, and packaging as 1 roll/box.
Note: whether a cryogenic ribbon meets deep-freeze conditions such as LN₂ or -80 °C must be verified together with the label face stock for the corresponding temperature range. When selecting, pair them on the principle that "the label face stock temperature rating ≥ the target storage temperature range, and the ribbon and face stock are in the same tier" to avoid ribbon detachment or faded ink.
Key Features
黑
Black ribbon, high contrast
Black ink forms high-contrast barcodes and text on white or light-colored cryogenic labels, facilitating barcode scanning and long-term visual verification.
宽
110 mm width, suits medium-to-wide labels
Both the page name and gallery specify 110 mm × 300 m; the 110 mm width suits medium-to-wide labels, side-by-side small labels, or wide carton marks in a single pass.
长
300 m continuous length, batch-friendly
The 300 m continuous length meets high-frequency output needs such as bulk sample bank accessioning and periodic relabeling, reducing roll-change downtime.
配
Specifications list compatibility with MACH4S / EOS3
The specifications section lists compatible printers as MACH4S / EOS3 laboratory label printers; if used with other models, first confirm ribbon width and core compatibility.

Typical Applications
Bulk output for biobanks
The 300 m continuous length combined with the 110 mm width enables single-pass output for medium-to-wide labels, ideal for full-roll labeling during peak accessioning periods.
Daily laboratory cryogenic label printing
Pairs with the site's cryogenic label series to produce high-contrast identification for cryovials, microcentrifuge tubes, sample boxes, and other containers.
Use with cryogenic labels
The ribbon must match the label face stock in the same temperature range; for LN₂ or -80 °C applications, select cryogenic labels and ribbons rated for the corresponding temperature range.
Multi-roll stock management
1 roll/box packaging makes it easy to restock according to consumable usage rates, keeping the same ribbon model in stock and avoiding print quality fluctuations from mixing batches.
FAQ
Q: Is this a label or a ribbon?
A: This product is a thermal-transfer ribbon, not a label. During printing, the ribbon and label face stock feed together, and the printhead transfers ink onto the label surface to form text and graphics.
Q: What labels does the 110 mm width suit?
A: The 110 mm width suits medium-to-wide labels, side-by-side small labels, or cryobox carton marks; if the label is narrower than the ribbon, the uncovered area simply does not transfer ink and does not affect use.
Q: Can it be used directly in LN₂ environments?
A: Whether it meets LN₂ or -80 °C deep-freeze requirements depends on whether the ribbon and label face stock temperature ratings match. Complete a freeze–thaw verification with actual containers before bulk use.
Q: How do I choose between this and the 80 mm BRL-80 ribbon?
A: Choose by printer width and everyday label width: the label width should be ≤ the ribbon width. If you mainly print labels up to 80 mm, the 80 mm specification is more economical; for 80–110 mm labels, choose the 110 mm specification.
Q: What does "multiple widths available" in the specifications section mean?
A: The dimensions field in the specifications section reads "multiple widths available, see product detail image," but the page name and gallery both clearly specify 110 mm × 300 m; the actual delivered width is subject to order confirmation.
Selection & Usage Guide
1
Choose a ribbon in the same temperature range as the label face stock
First confirm the target storage temperature range (LN₂, -80 °C, -40 °C, ambient), then select label face stock and a ribbon in the corresponding tier.
2
Choose ribbon width by printer width and label width
Ribbon width should be ≥ label width; the 110 mm specification suits medium-to-wide labels or scenarios requiring coverage of multiple rows of labels.
3
Run a small test print before installation
For first use or batch changes, print a small sample first to check ink adhesion, barcode readability, and edge cleanliness.
4
Verify freeze–thaw before bulk use
For identification used in low-temperature storage, complete one full freeze–thaw cycle with actual containers at the target temperature range and confirm readability before scaling up.
Consumable Pairing Recommendations
- Same temperature range: the ribbon and label face stock must be paired in the same temperature tier; this is key to readability after freeze–thaw.
- Same model for restocking: keep the same BRL series model when restocking to avoid print density fluctuations from mixing batches.
- Stock as needed: the 300 m length suits bulk output scenarios; for small-batch trials, request samples for verification first.
- Storage: keep ribbons away from light and moisture, and avoid stacking at high temperatures to prevent ink layer aging or sticking.
Note: The official material guide table does not include a BRL series ribbon row; all content on this page comes from the product page specifications section, category name, and gallery photos. Low-temperature performance must be verified together with the selected label face stock. The specifications field "Matching ribbon: this product is a ribbon, no additional matching required" is a generic category field; in actual use, the ribbon must still be selected according to the label face stock temperature tier. The specifications field "multiple widths available, see product detail image" is inconsistent with the 110 mm stated in the page name; please confirm the actual delivered width with customer service before ordering. The page gallery contains marketing banners and watermarks; appearance is subject to the actual product.
Page note: This item is a thermal-transfer ribbon consumable, not a label or printer; temperature and low-temperature resistance statements must be understood together with the paired label face stock. The ribbon alone cannot be used directly as an adhesive specimen label.
