Brother 12TZ131 P-touch Tape 12mm Black on Clear

Brother 12TZ131 12mm Black-on-Clear P-touch Tape

Create discreet labels that blend with the surface using Brother P-touch Tape 12mm black-on-clear media. The 12TZ131 cassette prints dark text on transparent laminated film for Brother label makers. Use it on glass, colored plastics, and branded equipment where a white background would look out of place. Characters appear to float on the substrate while staying protected by the laminate layer.

Clear tape suits window decals, sample vials, and consumer electronics where minimal visual noise matters. Brother engineering keeps adhesive clear of the print zone for sharp edges. The 12 mm width balances readability with compact placement on moderate surfaces. Load the cassette per model instructions to maintain proper tension and cut quality.

Why Choose This Clear Tape

White labels can cover important status lights or branding elements. Clear tape keeps context visible while adding readable text. Labs, retail displays, and AV racks benefit from low-profile marking. Brother laminate shields ink from cleaners used on glass and acrylic.

Test on a small area when applying to textured or coated finishes. Avoid extreme heat that may cloud adhesive on clear film. Keep cassettes sealed until use to prevent dust on the ribbon path. Preview long filenames to fit the 12 mm line height.

Teams that label mixed-material inventory should stock both clear and solid tapes. The 12TZ131 reference ensures correct ordering across reorder cycles. Sharp black text on clear film speeds visual checks during inspections. Professional labeling supports compliance without cluttering the device face.

Allow labels to set for one minute before rubbing the surface during install. Avoid folding clear tape over sharp corners that lift edges over time. Track 12TZ131 stock separately from white-background cassettes in supply closets. Transparent media keeps product branding visible on retail displays and demo units.
