Introduction

In demanding industrial environments, the clarity and durability of cable identification directly affect equipment operation efficiency and maintenance safety. Traditional cable tags or generic plastic cable identification clips often fail to remain stable under high temperatures, exposure to acids/alkalis, oil contamination, or harsh outdoor weather, resulting in faded or detached labels that increase maintenance risks and costs.
CHII LEE understands the high requirements of various industries for industrial cable identification solutions. We manufacture our POM Heat & Chemical Resistant Cable Marker (also known as Cable ID Ring, Cable Identification Ring, Cable Coding Ring) using premium-grade POM (Polyoxymethylene). With its superior heat resistance, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength, it provides a long-lasting and reliable cable management tool for chemical plants, energy facilities, telecommunications, transportation, and automation equipment industries.

Technical Advantages

CHII LEE’s premium POM Cable Marker offers the following technical advantages:

• High weather resistance & long service life
  Withstands prolonged exposure to UV sunlight, rain, and extreme temperature fluctuations. Outlasts conventional cable markers, reducing replacement frequency and maintenance costs.
• Excellent heat & chemical resistance
  Endures continuous operation in environments up to 100°C and resists acids, alkalis, oils, and most industrial solvents—ideal for chemical plants, industrial power distribution marking, and high-temperature processes.
• High mechanical strength & deformation resistance
  Even when clamped on cables for extended periods, the Cable Identification Ring maintains a secure fit without loosening or warping due to external force or temperature changes.
• Multiple sizes & color options
  Available in various inner diameters and colors for easy classification by cable size and function, compliant with international color coding standards (e.g., TIA/EIA-606), enhancing the efficiency of any cable identification system.
• Custom engraving & laser marking
  Supports printing or laser engraving of project codes, equipment names, or company logos. Scratch-resistant and wear-resistant for long-term readability.
• C-shaped flexible opening design
  As a professional C-type Cable Marker, it can be installed without disconnecting the cable—ideal for post-installation labeling or quick replacement during maintenance.

Industrial Application Case 1: Chemical Plants & Process Equipment

Chemical production environments are often accompanied by high-temperature pipelines, corrosive gases, and acidic/alkaline liquids, demanding highly durable identification materials.
One chemical plant fully adopted CHII LEE’s POM Heat & Chemical Resistant Cable Marker in its control systems and power cables. Using color-coded and engraved markers to differentiate functions, the labeling remained intact and clear after years of operation. Maintenance staff could quickly locate cables, improving efficiency by 40% and significantly reducing downtime caused by miswiring.

Industrial Application Case 2: Outdoor Energy & Public Infrastructure

In power companies, port facilities, and transportation infrastructure, cables are exposed to prolonged sunlight, rain, salt spray, and dust. Traditional PVC Cable Coding Rings often become brittle and fade over time.
A coastal substation replaced its PVC tags with CHII LEE’s POM Cable ID Rings. The service life of the new markers extended from 2–3 years to over 5 years, and even after typhoons and high-humidity conditions, the markings remained clear and legible—dramatically reducing replacement frequency, lowering maintenance costs, and improving onsite safety.
