Panduit H000X134HXM Continuous Heat Shrink Label Cassette for MP300
Overview
The Panduit H000X134HXM is a PXE™ continuous heat shrink label cassette engineered for wire and cable identification in industrial electrical, data center, and panel-wiring environments. Sized at 34.0 mm diameter and 2.4 m long, these yellow polyolefin labels shrink at a 2:1 ratio and are rated for wire gauges spanning 4 AWG through 250 MCM — a wide enough range to cover most branch-circuit, feeder, and large-conductor labeling in a single cassette format. The cassette is designed exclusively for use with the Panduit MP300 portable label printer, and its quick-load MP™ cassette mechanism holds both the label material and the ribbon together, so swapping between label types takes seconds rather than minutes.
If you're running wire identification on large-gauge conductors — switchgear terminations, MCC panels, or heavy feeder runs — the H000X134HXM is the cassette that covers that upper end of the wire gauge spectrum without requiring a separate labeling process or secondary sleeve.
Key Features
- 34.0 mm Diameter, 2:1 Shrink Ratio: After application and heat, the sleeve conforms tightly around the conductor. The 2:1 polyolefin construction means a 34 mm sleeve shrinks down to approximately 17 mm — suitable for final diameters across the 4 AWG to 250 MCM range. No guessing whether the label will seat cleanly on a large lug.
- 2.4 m Continuous Label Length: Each cassette carries 2.4 meters of continuous label stock. That gives the MP300 enough material to generate multiple label sets per cassette, reducing cassette change frequency on large panel or conduit runs where you're marking dozens of conductors in sequence.
- Yellow Color Stock: Yellow is the recognized identifier for specific circuit types and hazard callouts in many electrical and industrial labeling conventions. Having the color baked into the label material — not printed over a clear sleeve — means the identification persists even if the print wears in high-touch environments.
- Polyolefin Construction (2:1): Polyolefin heat shrink is the workhorse material for electrical identification — chemically resistant, rated for contact with standard insulation materials, and stable across the temperature ranges found in enclosed panels and conduit systems. This isn't a general-purpose adhesive label that migrates off a warm conductor.
- UL 224 VW-1 Rating: UL 224 governs extruded insulating tubing, and the VW-1 flame rating means the material passes a vertical flame test — it won't propagate flame if exposed to an ignition source. For wire management inside panels and junction boxes where code compliance matters, this rating is the one to check before specifying.
- Quick-Load MP™ Cassette Format: The cassette integrates both label ribbon and media in a single drop-in unit. No threading ribbon separately, no alignment fuss. On a job site or in an MCC room where you're hot-swapping between label types, the integrated cassette design keeps downtime minimal.
- 5-Pack Packaging (80-Count Carton): Individual purchases ship in packs of 5 cassettes; full carton quantity is 80. For contractors outfitting a crew or stocking a print station for a large project, the carton format avoids per-cassette ordering overhead and keeps cost-per-label predictable.
- MP300 Compatibility: The H000X134HXM is validated for the MP300 portable printer — the same platform used across Panduit label printer deployments in industrial and electrical applications. It will not load correctly into incompatible printers; confirm your printer model before ordering if you're running multiple Panduit printer models on site.
Integration & Compatibility
This cassette is purpose-built for the Panduit MP300 portable label printer. The MP™ quick-load cassette interface is specific to that platform — the H000X134HXM will not function in other manufacturer's printers or in Panduit's non-MP series equipment. If your site runs MP300 units for electrical identification work, the H000X134HXM drops in as a direct large-conductor label solution without any driver or firmware changes; the printer reads the cassette type automatically.
For projects requiring heat shrink labels across a range of wire gauges, plan your cassette inventory by conductor size bands. The H000X134HXM covers the upper range (4 AWG–250 MCM); smaller-gauge runs will require a different cassette diameter. Panduit's MP label cassette line spans multiple diameters for this reason — the H000X134HXM is not a universal fit across all conductor sizes on a given job.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What wire gauge range does the H000X134HXM cover?
A: The H000X134HXM is rated for 4 AWG through 250 MCM. The 34.0 mm diameter and 2:1 shrink ratio give it the range needed to seat cleanly on large-gauge conductors including feeder and service-entrance wiring.
Q: Which printer does the H000X134HXM work with?
A: The H000X134HXM is designed exclusively for the Panduit MP300 portable label printer. The MP™ quick-load cassette format is specific to that platform and is not compatible with other Panduit printer lines or third-party printers.
Q: Is the H000X134HXM flame rated?
A: Yes. The H000X134HXM meets UL 224 VW-1, which includes a vertical flame test requirement. The material will not propagate flame, making it appropriate for use inside electrical panels, junction boxes, and other enclosed wiring environments where flame spread is a code concern.
Q: How much label stock is in each cassette?
A: Each cassette contains 2.4 meters of continuous heat shrink label material. The cassette also integrates the print ribbon, so no separate ribbon loading is required.
Q: How many cassettes come in a package?
A: The standard package quantity is 5 cassettes. Full carton quantity is 80 cassettes.
Q: What material are these labels made from?
A: The labels are constructed from polyolefin with a 2:1 shrink ratio. Polyolefin is chemically resistant and thermally stable, making it suitable for wire identification in industrial panels, conduit, and enclosed electrical environments.
The H000X134HXM is the cassette I reach for when a project has large-conductor terminations that need durable, code-relevant identification — the 34.0 mm, 2:1 polyolefin construction covers the 4 AWG to 250 MCM range in one SKU, which simplifies inventory planning on switchgear and MCC work considerably.
Technical Highlights:
- UL 224 VW-1 Flame Rating: The VW-1 designation means the label material passes a vertical flame propagation test — a real requirement when you're labeling inside enclosed panels where ignition risk exists. Not all heat shrink products carry this rating; verify before substituting.
- Integrated Ribbon Cassette: The MP™ quick-load format combines label stock and ribbon in a single unit. On a job site where you're swapping between label cassette types mid-run, this eliminates the ribbon alignment step entirely — faster changeovers, fewer errors.
- 2.4 m Continuous Stock Per Cassette: At 2.4 meters per cassette, you get meaningful run length before a swap is needed. On a 42-space panel with large feeder conductors, a single cassette typically handles a full labeling run with material to spare.
Deployment Considerations:
- The H000X134HXM is MP300-specific. If your crew runs multiple Panduit printer models, confirm the MP300 is the unit on site before pulling cassettes from stock — the quick-load format does not cross-fit other platforms.
- Yellow stock is intentional but not universal for all labeling conventions. If your project spec calls for a different color (white for custom print visibility, or a different color code for circuit type), verify that the yellow designation matches your labeling scheme before ordering in carton quantities.
This cassette is the right call for electrical contractors and panel integrators working large-conductor termination projects — MCC assemblies, service entrance gear, or any switchgear room where 4 AWG through 250 MCM conductors need durable, flame-rated identification printed on-site with a portable MP300 unit.
