Why Choose the Partex PA2-MBW Slide-On Cable Marker Multipack?
The Partex PA2-MBW is a professional black-on-white slide-on chevron cable marker multipack designed for clear, reliable identification of electrical cables and conductors. Part of the Partex PA2 cable marking range, these size D markers are suitable for cables with an outside diameter of 4.0–10.0 mm, making them a practical solution for industrial control panels, machinery wiring and electrical equipment installations.
Featuring black identification characters on a white background, the PA2-MBW provides high-contrast marking that helps electricians, panel builders and maintenance engineers identify cables during installation, inspection and fault finding. The chevron-style slide-on design allows individual markers to be arranged into identification sequences directly on compatible cables.
Supplied as a loose multipack, the Partex PA2-MBW offers a convenient assortment for creating different cable references without purchasing every identification character separately. Its 4.0–10.0 mm cable diameter compatibility makes it particularly useful for identifying larger insulated conductors and cables in electrical cabinets, machinery and industrial automation systems.

High-Contrast Identification for Larger Electrical Cables
Accurate cable identification is essential for safe, efficient electrical installation and ongoing maintenance. The Partex PA2-MBW provides a practical marking solution using size D chevron markers designed for cables with an outside diameter of 4.0–10.0 mm. Its black-on-white identification format makes cable references easy to distinguish in electrical control panels, machinery cabinets and industrial equipment.
For correct installation, measure the overall outside diameter of the insulated cable rather than relying on its conductor cross-sectional area in mm². Select the required identification characters from the loose multipack and slide them onto the cable in the intended reading order. Installation is generally carried out before fitting terminals or connectors that would prevent access to the cable end. Position the completed identification sequence where it remains visible and ensure the markers fit securely without damaging the cable insulation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panel cable identification.
- Machinery and industrial automation wiring.
- PLC cabinets and electrical equipment assemblies.
- Electrical distribution boards and switchgear cabinets.
- Motor control centres and motor wiring identification.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacturing.
- Building management and HVAC control installations.
- Electrical maintenance, inspection and fault finding.
- Identification of larger insulated cables and conductors.
