Common Uses for High Tack Labels

High-tack labels are designed for working conditions where a standard adhesive label may lift, peel, or fail over time. They are a great choice if you’re looking to source a durable label that offers longevity in tough working environments. Here’s just some of the most common use cases our customers order these labels for:

Industrial Equipment Labels

A great choice for labelling machinery, equipment panels, control boxes and workshop assets. They are commonly printed with designs that include warning messages, operating instructions, and safety information.

Asset Identification Labels

Commonly used to track tools, equipment and plant, ur high-tack labels can be custom-printed with variable data requirements such as asset numbers, QR codes or barcodes.

Machinery and Tool Labels

Widely used in the construction sector, these labels are perfect for tools, cases, machines, and production equipment. They are typically printed with artwork that provides information on inspection dates, calibration details, or safety warnings.

Warehouse and Logistics Labels

For warehouses, distribution centres and logistics businesses, high-tack labels are perfect for pallets, racking labels and equipment. Their strong adhesive ensures they stay in place throughout the logistical supply chain.

Outdoor Identification Stickers

When finished with a laminated overcoat, high-tack labels can be used for outdoor identification, equipment marking, and general signage on suitable smooth surfaces. They are a good option for labels that will be regularly exposed to moisture, sunlight and changing temperatures.

Surface Suitability

Our high tack labels are designed for smooth, clean surfaces where strong, permanent adhesion is required. The durable vinyl material offers very good adhesion to a variety of surfaces, including everyday surfaces such as:

  • Glass
  • Steel
  • Aluminium
  • PVC
  • Melamine
  • Smooth painted metal
  • Smooth plastic surfaces
  • Machinery panels
  • Equipment casings
  • Containers, drums and storage boxes
  • Tools and industrial assets

For long-term adhesion, the surface should be smooth, clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, oil, loose paint, or cleaning residue before the label is applied.

The recommended minimum application temperature is +10ยฐC. Once applied correctly, the material has an operating temperature range of -40ยฐC to +90ยฐC.

FAQ

What type of vinyl stickers are the strongest?

We offer three main types of adhesive grades: Standard Tack Stickers, High Tack Stickers and Aggressive Tack Stickers. Our high-tack vinyl stickers are sufficient for most industrial purposes.

What is the difference between high tack stickers and low tack stickers?

Standard tack labels are typically used for short-term branding or promotional purposes. High tack adhesive labels are a more durable adhesive solution, perfect for long-term use. They also work great for low-energy surfaces where standard adhesive wouldnโ€™t be suitable.

What surfaces do your Hi Tack Labels stick to?

Our Extra Permanent Adhesive labels are designed to bond to a variety of challenging low-energy surfaces, including plastic, concrete, metals, wood and painted surfaces.

How long will these personalised hi-tack vinyl stickers last?ย 

Theyโ€™ll stick to surfaces for around 3-5 years. If they are to be used outdoors, we highly advise finishing the label with a laminated finish to maximise longevity.ย 

Are these high tack stickers suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, our hi-tack stickers are finished with a laminated overcoat, ensuring theyโ€™re suitable for outdoor use. They will resist moisture, scratching and UV rays.

Will the adhesive damage surfaces when removed?

The strong adhesive used on our high-tack labels may leave some residue. If you need an easily removable label, check out our removable or magnetic labels.

Can these hi-tack vinyl stickers be laminated?

Our extra-aggressive labels come equipped with a laminated finish that provides added protection against scratching, abrasion, and UV light.

What surfaces are these high-tack labels not suitable for?ย 

High-tack labels are not recommended for rough, dusty, porous, granular, or unstable surfaces. This includes surfaces such as concrete, brick, rough timber, flaking paint, rusty metal, oily surfaces, or any surface where the coating may lift.

If the paint is damaged, non-original, or poorly bonded, the label may not stick properly and could pull paint away when removed.ย 

Do you offer trade/reseller pricing?ย
