SATO SR15LD-20246 4x2 Direct Thermal Paper Label
The SATO SR15LD-20246 is a 4" x 2" direct thermal paper label engineered for high-volume industrial and enterprise labeling operations. Supplied in cases of 4,000 labels (four 1,000-label rolls), this product combines reliable thermal transfer capability with permanent acrylic adhesion, making it ideal for demanding warehouse, manufacturing, and distribution environments where consistent barcode and text clarity are essential.
Key Features
- 4" x 2" label format with direct thermal paper facestock
- Permanent acrylic adhesive for secure bonding to cartons, packages, and industrial surfaces
- 1,000 labels per roll; 4 rolls per case (4,000 total labels)
- 3" core ID with 8" outer diameter for standard industrial printer mounting
- Perforated between labels for efficient tear-off dispensing
- Compatible with SATO industrial thermal transfer printers
- Supports wax (T101A), wax-resin (T110A Premier II), and resin (R333A) ribbon options
Technical Highlights
The SR15LD-20246 utilizes direct thermal paper technology optimized for crisp, high-contrast barcode reproduction and clear human-readable text across a range of operating temperatures. The permanent acrylic adhesive provides reliable adhesion to diverse substrate surfaces, meeting the durability demands of industrial logistics and asset tracking applications. Multi-ribbon compatibility—including wax, wax-resin, and resin options—allows organizations to select the optimal print durability level for their specific use case, from general shipping labels to harsh-environment asset tags.
The wound-in configuration with perforation between labels enables rapid, operator-friendly dispensing without manual cutting, reducing labor time in high-throughput labeling operations. The standard 3" core and 8" outer diameter packaging ensure seamless integration with SATO industrial printer systems.
Applications
- Shipping & Logistics: Barcode labels for package tracking and carrier handoff
- Warehouse Management: Pallet and carton identification with durable adhesion
- Manufacturing: Work-in-process (WIP) and finished goods labeling
- Asset Tracking: Inventory and equipment identification in demanding environments
- Distribution Centers: High-volume label production for order fulfillment

The 4" x 2" format strikes an optimal balance for industrial applications—large enough to accommodate both barcode and supplementary text, yet compact enough for efficient roll utilization and minimal label waste. Organizations requiring high throughput benefit from the 4,000-label case quantity and perforated roll design, which accelerates dispensing in automated or semi-automated labeling workflows. The permanent acrylic adhesive is engineered for temperature stability and long-term adhesion, critical for supply chain applications where labels must remain legible and affixed throughout transit and storage.
Ribbon compatibility with wax, wax-resin, and resin formulations provides flexibility to balance cost (wax), durability (wax-resin), and extreme-environment resilience (resin) based on application demands.
