Why Choose the Partex PA3-MBW Slide-On Chevron Cable Marker?

The Partex PA3-MBW is a durable and practical slide-on chevron cable identification marker designed for clear identification of electrical cables and conductors in industrial electrical installations. As part of the Partex PA3 cable marking series, this size E marker is suitable for cables with an outside diameter of 8.0–16.0 mm, providing an effective identification solution for larger cables used in electrical distribution, industrial machinery and automation systems.

Featuring black identification characters on a white background, the PA3-MBW provides excellent visual contrast for clear and convenient reading during installation, inspection and maintenance. Its chevron-style design allows adjacent markers to align neatly when creating multi-character cable identification codes, helping electrical engineers and maintenance technicians maintain consistent and organised wiring identification.

The slide-on mounting design allows the marker to be fitted directly onto compatible cables without adhesive or separate fastening components. Supplied in a Loose Multipack format, the PA3-MBW is suitable for electrical contractors, panel builders and industrial maintenance teams requiring convenient access to individual markers during installation and cable identification work.
