24mm Blue Laminated Labelling That Holds Its Colour Outdoors

Brother TZe-551 prints black characters onto a blue laminated tape, 24mm wide and 8 metres long, and is one of the few coloured backgrounds in the range that survives a year of sunlight without fading badly.

A 24mm cassette fits nine of the P-touch tools we stock: the PT-P700, PT-P710BT, PT-D610BT, PT-P750W, PT-E560BTVP, PT-P900W, PT-E920BT, PT-P910BT and the PT-P950NW. It will not fit the PT-D460BT or the PT-E310BTVP, which top out at 18mm. It will not fit the PT-H105, PT-D210, PT-P300BT or the PT-E110VP, which top out at 12mm. Check the maximum cassette width printed on your machine before ordering.

Six laminate layers seal the printed characters between clear PET protective films, so abrasion wears the surface and leaves the text legible. Brother records no print discolouration against solvents, acids and alkalis, and no effect after thirty days immersed in water or 5 per cent salt solution. After the same 478 hours of accelerated UV, roughly a year outdoors, the background shifted only 5.71 delta E.

The rest of the range sits in Brother TZe and MK tapes, the nine tools that accept a 24mm cassette are all in Brother P-touch label makers, and the wider marking range is grouped under labelling consumables. The Brother PT-P700 is one of the nine that takes it.

  • Six-layer laminate construction seals the print between clear PET protective films
  • No effect recorded after thirty days fully immersed in water or 5 per cent salt solution
  • Background colour held to 5.71 delta E after 478 hours of accelerated UV, roughly a year outdoors

FAQs

It fits nine of the tools we stock: the PT-P700, PT-P710BT, PT-D610BT, PT-P750W, PT-E560BTVP, PT-P900W, PT-E920BT, PT-P910BT and the PT-P950NW. It does not fit the PT-D460BT or the PT-E310BTVP, which take 18mm at most. It does not fit the PT-H105, PT-D210, PT-P300BT or the PT-E110VP, which take 12mm at most.
The PT-E310BTVP is a capable industrial tool but its cassette bay and print head top out at 18mm. Width is a hard mechanical limit, not a setting, so a 24mm cassette will not seat. The PT-E560BTVP is the next tool up in that series and does take 24mm.
Eight metres. Brother supplies 8 metres in every laminated TZe width from 6mm to 36mm, so a 24mm cassette holds the same length as a 12mm one and simply produces wider labels.
Yes. Brother's 478 hour accelerated UV test, roughly a year of outdoor exposure, shifted the blue background by only 5.71 delta E and the print stayed legible. Thirty days fully immersed in water or 5 per cent salt solution had no effect either.
No. Brother describes the acrylic adhesive on laminated TZe tape as removable without leaving a sticky residue. If you need a label that cannot be lifted, this is not the right tape. The TZe-S strong adhesive range is the one to look at.
Not this one. Brother's UL file covers the strong adhesive, flexible ID and security TZe ranges. Standard laminated TZe, including this cassette, is not included. If a UL listing is a tender requirement, specify one of those three ranges instead.
Brother survival tested the laminated range from minus 80 to plus 150 degrees Celsius. That is a survival test rather than an operating rating, and Brother notes the laminate can separate or shrink under sustained heat. Brother publishes no dishwasher safe or freezer safe claim for TZe tape, so we do not make one.
