Product Overview
Lab093-629 is a 25.4 × 12.7 mm laboratory cryogenic label made with T629 nylon cloth face stock for -196 °C LN₂ and ultra-low temperature environments. The nominal size corresponds to imperial 1 × 0.5 in, with a format ratio of exactly 2:1. It fits both the frosted end of microscope slides and cryovial bodies, a dual-carrier specification commonly used in pathology and biobank workflows.
Slide archiving requires an identification area beyond the frosted writing area that does not obstruct the microscopic field of view, while cryovials need a narrow label that conforms to the curved body. The 25.4 mm width fits fully along the short edge of the slide with margins preserved, and the 12.7 mm height stays within the visible range of a single line of information on the vial body. One specification covers both container types, simplifying unified purchasing and unified print templates in the laboratory.
Key Features
材
T629 nylon cloth face stock
The nylon cloth base conforms well and withstands high and low temperatures, resisting edge lift on both flat slide surfaces and curved vial bodies. The official material system covers all common labeling locations: room temperature, microscope slides, cryovials and conical tubes.
幅
Exact imperial 1 × 0.5 in
The nominal 25.4 × 12.7 mm equals imperial 1 × 0.5 in in a 2:1 landscape ratio, aligning directly with slide specifications and existing print templates marked in imperial units, with no conversion or redesign needed.
双
Dual carrier: microscope slides / cryovials
The width fits the short-edge identification area at the frosted end of microscope slides, and the height fits a single line of information on cryovial bodies; one specification covers both container types.
卷
500–1000 labels per roll
Continuous die-cutting with even spacing across the full roll, peel-and-apply, ideal for batch slide archiving and vial labeling in biobanks, and easy to split rolls and verify inventory.

Typical Applications
Archiving at the frosted end of microscope slides
Applied beside the frosted writing area of the slide, positioned horizontally without occupying the microscopic field of view, carrying the pathology number and archive date for easy batch review and verification in slide boxes.
Single-line labeling on cryovial bodies
The 12.7 mm height matches the single-line information area on the vial body; once applied it does not obscure the graduation marks or cap threads, suitable for specimen numbers and short barcode printing.
Genomics and cell laboratories
Provides a uniform specification for labeling microscope slides and cryovials in nucleic acid extraction, cell cryopreservation and other workflows, reducing the management cost of purchasing multiple label specifications in parallel.
Printing & Ribbon Matching
This label must be used with a laboratory cryogenic ribbon. BRL-80-BK and BRL-110-BK are ribbons formulated for cryogenic environments, maintaining the adhesion of print and barcodes after -196 °C LN₂ cycles. When standard room-temperature ribbons are used instead, printed content may detach in cryogenic environments and is not recommended for long-term LN₂ cryopreserved specimens.
- Recommended printers: M611, EOS2, EOS3, MACH4S laboratory label printers, all full-roll supply, continuous-feed models.
- When the same roll is shared between microscope slides and cryovials, set the print template uniformly to the 2:1 landscape ratio to avoid field misalignment.
- Wipe dust from the frosted end before labeling slides; confirm the vial surface is dry and frost-free before labeling; press lightly after application to remove air bubbles.
- Store the unused portion of the roll on its release liner in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and high humidity.
Selection & Usage Guide
1
Confirm the carrier type
This is a dual-carrier universal specification for slides and cryovials; if labeling cryovials only and a longer barcode capacity is needed, choose a long landscape specification for a larger horizontal print area.
2
Verify imperial alignment
If slides and vial bodies come from an imperial-specified system, the exact 1 × 0.5 in of this item can directly reuse existing templates without re-layout in metric units.
3
Control information fields
With a 12.7 mm height, arrange a single-line barcode or two short lines of fields; for QR codes and multiple fields side by side, choose a larger square-label specification.
4
Matching ribbon and printer
Select the cryogenic ribbon and laboratory printer model according to the specifications table; before batch runs, test-print a few labels to confirm barcode grade, then print the full roll.
FAQ
Q: Can this label be applied to microscope slides?
A: Yes. The nominal width fits the short-edge identification area at the frosted end of microscope slides, and once applied it does not obstruct the microscopic field of view, suitable for slide archiving in pathology and cell laboratories.
Q: Can the same label be applied to both slides and cryovials?
A: Yes. This is a dual-carrier universal specification: the slide end uses the width for positioning, and the cryovial end uses the 12.7 mm height for single-line labeling; both container types can share the same roll and the same print template.
Q: Is 25.4 × 12.7 mm a metric or imperial specification?
A: This size is the exact conversion of imperial 1 × 0.5 in; the two are the same specification. The page lists it in the metric format commonly used in laboratories for easy cross-checking with equipment specification sheets.
Q: How does this relate to "multiple specifications available" in the specifications section?
A: The specifications section retains the available specification notes for this series. This item is nominally listed as 25.4 × 12.7 mm; for other sizes, contact us via the hotline on this page to confirm available specifications.
Q: Can QR codes or variable data be printed?
A: Yes. The label itself supports barcode and QR code printing; with a 12.7 mm height, single-line information is recommended; for multiple fields side by side, choose a larger specification to ensure readability.
Usage Notes
Note: The label must be printed with a cryogenic ribbon (BRL-80-BK / BRL-110-BK); room-temperature ribbons may cause print to detach in LN₂ environments. When applying to both microscope slides and cryovials, first confirm the carrier surface is dry, frost-free and free of oil, and press firmly after application to ensure adhesion through cryogenic cycles.
