Why Choose the Partex PA1-RBW Slide-On Cable Marker Reel?
The Partex PA1-RBW is a professional black-on-white slide-on chevron cable marker supplied in a convenient reel format for efficient electrical cable and conductor identification. Part of the Partex PA1 cable marking system, these size C markers are designed for cables with an outside diameter of 2.5–5.0 mm, making them suitable for industrial control panels, electrical equipment and machinery wiring.
Featuring black identification characters on a white background, the PA1-RBW provides clear, high-contrast marking to support accurate cable identification during installation, inspection and maintenance. The chevron-style slide-on design allows individual markers to be positioned on compatible cables to create organised conductor identification sequences.
Supplied on a reel, the Partex PA1-RBW offers a practical format for electrical contractors, control panel builders and equipment manufacturers carrying out repetitive cable marking tasks. The reel presentation supports organised marker storage and convenient dispensing during wiring and assembly work.

High-Contrast Cable Identification for Professional Electrical Installations
Clear conductor identification is essential for efficient electrical installation, inspection and fault finding. The Partex PA1-RBW combines black-on-white marking with a compact chevron-style design to provide easily distinguishable cable identification. Its size C configuration is intended for cables measuring 2.5–5.0 mm in outside diameter, making it suitable for a range of electrical control and equipment wiring applications.
For correct installation, measure the overall outside diameter of the insulated cable rather than relying on its conductor cross-sectional area. Select the required identification markers from the reel and slide them onto the compatible cable in the intended reading order. Installation is generally carried out before fitting a terminal or connector that would prevent access to the cable end. Position the completed identification sequence where it remains visible and check that the markers fit securely without damaging the cable insulation.
Typical Applications
- Electrical control panel cable and conductor identification.
- Industrial machinery and automation wiring.
- PLC input and output cable identification.
- Electrical distribution boards and switchgear cabinets.
- Motor control centres and industrial equipment assemblies.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacturing.
- Building management and HVAC control systems.
- Electrical maintenance, inspection and fault finding.
- Repetitive cable identification tasks in panel production environments.
