T2KP High-Temperature PCB Labels

In PCB manufacturing, labels must remain readable and securely bonded through reflow profiles, wave soldering, and chemical wash processes. TE Connectivity’s T2KP high-temperature polyimide labels are designed specifically for PCB and component identification where standard films can lift, shrink, or lose contrast, helping maintain end-to-end traceability from production through service.

T2KP uses a white matte polyimide (2 mil / 50.8 μm) with a permanent acrylic adhesive, supplied on a white paper glassine liner to support automatic dispensing. The material is thermal-transfer printable for durable alphanumeric IDs, barcodes, and 2D codes, and is specified to withstand exposure to fluxes, cleaning solvents, and molten solder. It also supports surface-mount board processing on either the top or bottom side of the PCB. For programs with regulatory and safety requirements, T2KP is halogen-free, electrostatic dissipative (ESD), self-extinguishing, and UL969 recognized (PGJI2/8, file MH17292).

Thermal performance is built for harsh assembly cycles: rated for 1,000 hours at 120°C, 2 hours at 190°C, and short exposure up to 290°C for 80 seconds, with a minimum service temperature of −40°C and minimum application temperature of 10°C. Typical uses include automotive electronics, aerospace assemblies, industrial, and general electronics manufacturing, supporting work-in-progress tracking, serialized product IDs, and robust component/PCB identification that remains intact through soldering and wash.
