Armor RL GENERIC CSI AWR1 110mmx360m/910 zwart

For high-volume thermal transfer printing where crisp barcodes and legible text are non-negotiable, the ARMOR AWR1 wax ribbon in 110 mm width and 360 m length delivers consistent, reliable output. Unlike generic wax ribbons that fade or smear under handling, this ribbon is formulated for good scratch and smudge resistance on coated and uncoated paper, vellum, and tag stock. The coated side in (CSI) orientation ensures proper ink transfer on flat-head thermal transfer printers, and the 1-inch core fits most standard industrial printers. With a print speed capability up to 12 inches per second, it keeps pace with demanding production environments without sacrificing print quality.

Highlights

• Wax-based ink formulation for sharp, dark prints on paper and tag stock
• 110 mm width and 360 m length reduce ribbon changes in high-volume jobs
• Coated side in (CSI) for flat-head thermal transfer printers
• Good scratch and smudge resistance for durable labels and tags
• Supports print speeds up to 12 IPS for efficient throughput
• RoHS, REACH, and halogen-free certified for environmental compliance

In daily use

This ribbon is a workhorse for shipping labels, warehouse tags, and retail price tickets. The wax formulation melts at a lower temperature than resin or wax/resin blends, which extends print head life and reduces energy consumption. While wax ribbons are not intended for extreme chemical or abrasion resistance, the AWR1 offers better durability than standard wax, making it suitable for labels that will be handled but not exposed to harsh solvents or outdoor weathering. The CSI coating means the ink is on the inside of the ribbon roll, which is the correct orientation for most flat-head printers from Zebra, Datamax, Intermec, and similar brands. Always verify your printer's ribbon winding requirement before use.
