Zebra 5.16" x 1476' 6100 Industrial Wax/Resin Ribbon | Case of 6 Rolls

Zebra 5.16" x 1476' 6100 Industrial Wax/Resin Ribbon provides the perfect balance of print quality and durability when you need more than standard wax but don't require full resin protection. This wax/resin hybrid formulation solves the common challenge of labels that must resist solvents and chemicals while maintaining excellent print clarity on both paper and synthetic materials. By offering superior smear and scratch resistance compared to wax ribbons, this UL-certified option delivers outstanding staying power in harsh warehouse, manufacturing, and outdoor environments without the premium cost of pure resin. The special ink formulation works seamlessly with Zebra thermal transfer printers to produce crisp barcodes and text that withstand exposure to water, steam, alkali, acid solutions, and moderate abrasion. When your labels face friction from repeated handling, chemical splashes in drum storage areas, or outdoor conditions with temperature extremes, this ribbon ensures your prints remain scannable and legible. With excellent chemical and solvent resistance and IR/visible light scanning capabilities, you get reliable performance for challenging applications at a practical price point.
