Brother PT-E300VP Label Tape
Your Brother PT-E300VP accepts genuine Brother TZe label tape cassettes and HSe heat-shrink tube tapes. This handheld industrial printer is engineered for electricians and telecom installers marking cables, patch panels, and electrical equipment. Flexible TZe-FX231 tape wraps around curved wires, while HSe heat-shrink tube cassettes slip directly over wire ends for permanent sleeve marking. Consumables for this model have been available from Ink Depot since Nov 2014. Australian customers rate Ink Depot 4.8 on Google.
Tape Length and Tape Quantities
Brother TZe and HSe cassette lengths vary depending on the tape style and material. Standard laminated TZe cassettes contain 8 metres of continuous tape, providing substantial output for trade and facility labelling. Specialized options like HSe heat-shrink tube cassettes generally supply 1.5 metres of shrinkable tubing per cartridge. Purchasing multipacks offers a convenient way to keep frequently used widths on hand for high-volume electrical and maintenance work.
Choosing the Right Tape Format for Your Application
Selecting the correct cassette depends on the surface texture and environmental exposure of your job site:
- Standard Laminated TZe Tape: Features a protective top coat resistant to water, chemical spills, abrasion, and fading. Ideal for smooth, flat surfaces such as distribution boards, switches, and machinery tags.
- Flexible ID Tape (TZe-FX): Specially formulated to wrap tightly around curved surfaces, wires, and cables without flagging or peeling at the edges over time.
- Strong Adhesive Tape (TZe-S): Formulated with extra bonding strength for textured, powder-coated, or rough industrial surfaces.
- Heat-Shrink Tube Tape (HSe): Unslit polyolefin tubing designed for wire termination marking. When heated, the tube shrinks around the cable to form a durable, permanent sheath. Available in numbers like HSe-211E (black on white 5.8mm) and HSe-631E (black on yellow 11.7mm).

Pro Tip: Matching Heat-Shrink Tubes to Wire Diameter
When selecting HSe heat-shrink tube cassettes for the Brother PT-E300VP, select a tube diameter that easily slips over the cable insulation before shrinking. Ensure the recommended wire range matches your conductor size so the tube fits snugly once heat is applied with a standard heat gun.
