Partners Brand THT113 Thermal Transfer Ribbon 5.12" 984ft Black

What it is

This Partners Brand thermal transfer ribbon is a black wax formulation on a 5.12 inch wide by 984 foot long roll. It is sold in packs of twelve for a total of twenty-four rolls per carton. The ribbon is designed for desktop thermal printers that use a 1 inch core and standard wax media. Offices printing shipping labels, barcode tags or inventory stickers will find the length suits medium daily volumes.

Build fit

Each roll drops into the printer's supply spindle without tools and the wax coating works with common paper and synthetic label stocks. The 984 foot length reduces roll changes during a shift, freeing operator time for other tasks. The twelve roll pack fits on a standard shelf and the twenty-four roll carton simplifies bulk storage for facilities running multiple printers.

Upgrade path

This ribbon replaces shorter wax rolls that require more frequent swaps and create more core waste. The jump is worth it when a site prints enough labels that roll changes interrupt workflow or when purchasing wants a single SKU to cover several identical printers. It is not for buyers who need resin durability for chemical exposure or outdoor use, nor for printers that require a different core size or ribbon width.
