SATO SR15LD-20118 3x1 Thermal Transfer Paper Label
The SATO SR15LD-20118 is a 3" x 1" thermal transfer paper label engineered for high-volume industrial and enterprise labeling applications. Each case contains 4 rolls with 1,650 labels per roll, delivering 6,600 labels total—designed to meet the demands of warehouse, manufacturing, and distribution operations requiring consistent, reliable label output.
Key Features
- Thermal transfer paper facestock with permanent acrylic adhesive for durable adhesion to cartons, packages, and product surfaces
- 1,650 labels per roll; 4 rolls per case (6,600 total labels)
- 1.5" inner core diameter with 4.375" outer diameter for seamless compatibility with SATO industrial thermal transfer printers
- Perforated between labels for efficient tear-off dispensing
- Compatible with wax (T101A), wax-resin (T110A Premier II), and resin (R333A) thermal transfer ribbons
- 3" x 1" format ideal for barcodes, asset tracking, shipping labels, and product identification
Technical Highlights
The SR15LD-20118 utilizes thermal transfer paper technology to deliver sharp barcode reproduction and legible human-readable text essential for supply chain visibility and regulatory compliance. The permanent acrylic adhesive maintains adhesion across varying operating temperatures and surfaces, reducing label failure in dynamic warehouse and manufacturing environments.
Multi-ribbon compatibility—wax, wax-resin, and resin options—gives operations flexibility in balancing print speed, durability, and cost. Wax ribbons suit general-purpose labeling; wax-resin provides enhanced durability for moderate environmental exposure; resin offers maximum resistance to chemicals, moisture, and temperature extremes.
The perforated design between labels enables fast, clean tear-off dispensing, minimizing operator downtime and improving throughput in high-speed labeling workflows.
Applications
The 3" x 1" label size and durable adhesive make the SR15LD-20118 suitable for:
- Barcode and product identification in warehouses and distribution centers
- Asset tracking and inventory management
- Shipping and logistics label applications
- Carton and case labeling in manufacturing and fulfillment operations
- Compliance and regulatory labeling across retail and industrial sectors

For organizations running SATO thermal transfer printers at scale, the SR15LD-20118 delivers predictable cost-per-label economics with the 6,600-label-per-case volume. The thermal transfer paper substrate balances affordability with print quality, making it ideal for high-throughput operations that don't require extreme environmental resistance. The four-roll case structure reduces changeovers and downtime compared to single-roll purchases, improving operator efficiency.
Ribbon compatibility across three technology levels allows procurement teams to optimize spend based on label durability requirements—a critical consideration when managing multiple product categories or shipping zones with varying environmental conditions. The perforated design and standard core dimensions eliminate setup complexity, reducing training overhead and integration friction in mixed-label environments.
