ZIPZUT10044032 | Zebra Z-Ultimate 4100T — Premium White Polyester Thermal Transfer Labels for Cold-to-High-Heat Applications
Zebra Z-Ultimate 4100T is a premium gloss thermal transfer label built on a 2.0 mil white coated polyester face with a high-performance permanent acrylic adhesive. It is designed for asset tracking, product identification, and inventory labels that must survive temperature extremes, moderate chemicals, and up to 3 years outdoors.
The 4100T holds a -40°F to 302°F service range after proper application, so one label can cover both cold storage and high-heat processes. It also complies with FDA 175.105 for indirect food contact, which allows use on shrink wrap and other food packaging. Buyers in manufacturing, automotive, and pharmaceutical operations use it where paper and entry-level synthetics fall short.
