SATO SR30LD-20004 3x1 Thermal Transfer Paper Label
The SATO SR30LD-20004 is a 3" x 1" thermal transfer paper label engineered for high-volume industrial and enterprise labeling operations. With 30,720 labels per case (6 rolls × 5,120 labels), this solution delivers reliable performance for barcode printing, asset tracking, shipping labels, and product identification across warehouse, manufacturing, and distribution environments.
Key Features
- 3" x 1" label dimensions for versatile barcode and identification applications
- Thermal transfer paper facestock with permanent acrylic adhesive for industrial-grade adhesion
- 5,120 labels per roll; 6 rolls per case (30,720 total labels)
- 3" core ID with 8" outer diameter for SATO industrial printer compatibility
- Perforation between labels for efficient tear-off dispensing
- Compatible with wax (T101A), wax-resin (T110A Premier II), and resin (R333A) ribbons
Technical Highlights
The thermal transfer paper facestock provides excellent print reception for crisp barcode reproduction and sharp human-readable text. The permanent acrylic adhesive ensures reliable adhesion to cartons, packaging, and product surfaces across varying operating temperatures, making it suitable for both room-temperature and cold-chain environments.
The roll configuration features a 3" inner diameter core with 8" outer diameter, designed for seamless integration with SATO industrial thermal transfer printers. Between-label perforation enables smooth, efficient dispensing in standard wound orientation, reducing waste and labor time in high-speed labeling operations.
Ribbon compatibility spans three durability tiers: wax ribbons for general-purpose applications, wax-resin blends for enhanced durability and smudge resistance, and full resin for maximum chemical and abrasion resistance. This flexibility allows operators to balance cost and performance based on label destination and handling requirements.
Applications
Ideal for:
- Shipping and logistics labels
- Barcode and SKU identification
- Asset tracking and inventory management
- Warehouse and distribution labeling
- Manufacturing floor identification

The 3x1 label size is a workhorse format in thermal printing, offering sufficient space for standard linear barcodes and supplementary text without excessive label waste. The 30,720-label case quantity positions this product for mid-to-high-volume operations seeking predictable per-unit costs. The permanent acrylic adhesive formulation provides strong initial tack and long-term adhesion stability—critical for cold-chain and outdoor applications where adhesive failure can result in lost tracking data.
The three-ribbon compatibility option is a practical advantage for operations managing multiple label use cases; wax works well for cardboard, wax-resin suits hybrid surfaces, and resin handles chemical/moisture exposure. Verify your printer's thermal head resolution and print speed compatibility before large orders to ensure optimal barcode quality and throughput.
