CONTRASTING INKS
The Linx range of contrasting inks for CIJ printers delivers vivid codes, in a variety of colours, across a range of substrates, including rubbers, plastics, and metals. These pigmented inks are MEK based inks and offer excellent light-fastness (for products stored or used outside), heat, and chemical splash resistance. They are used extensively in cabling and pipe extrusion, auto, and aero parts marking, electronics as well as packaging. Some Linx contrasting inks require the Spectrum variant of an inkjet printer. For a full profile of each ink, including printer compatibility, refer to the ‘Summary of the Linx range of pigmented inks’ datasheet.
A dense black ink giving good colour contrast especially on plasticised and unplasticised PVC.
Good contrast on dark and light coloured substrates, ideal for cabling and pipe extrusions as well as building and packaging materials.
Good colour contrast on dark coloured substrates, with a wider adhesion profile than 1039, including glass.
A heavily pigmented ink with outstanding opacity and contrast on any colour of substrate, including grey. Good performance across a range of materials, including PVC.
Good colour contrast on light coloured substrates, especially PVC, ideal for cable and pipe extrusions.
A lighter blue ink than 1043 but with a wider adhesion profile, including glass, metal and plastic, especially PVC.
A heavily pigmented ink that gives a highly opaque white print for excellent contrast and legibility on dark coloured substrates. It withstands a high level of heat, light and solvent and is suitable for a range of specialist applications, including plastic but particularly PE.
A heavily pigmented ink with outstanding clarity on dark coloured substrates, including PE. Can be used with the Linx Midi and Ultima printheads, offering a smaller size of code.
Good colour contrast on dark coloured contrasts across a range of substrates, especially PVC. Suitable for electronic components, rubber mouldings and jar enclosures.
Good contrast on black or other dark coloured materials, resists migration and transfer, and is particularly suited to coding onto plastics, especially PVC.
A heavily pigmented ink with highly opaque print on dark substrates. It resists a high level of heat, light and solvent, and is faster drying than 1305. Particularly good on plastics.
A heavily pigmented ink with outstanding clarity on dark coloured substrates, including PE. Can be used with the Linx Midi and Ultima printheads, offering a smaller size of code.
