It is a mask. Brother's description: the stencil tape carries the text or barcode you want, and an electrical current is passed through a pad of etching fluid pressed onto the stencil, which leaves the mark permanently in the metal itself. It works on conductive surfaces, and on glass using a glass etching paste. The tape is non-adhesive and non-laminated, because nothing is meant to stay stuck to anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe industries Brother names are the ones that cannot use a sticker: aerospace, motor, manufacturing, and medical and healthcare, where a serial or tracking number has to be permanent and applied without impact. It is also used for product marking and customisation - Brother's own examples are scissors and knives. Because the mark ends up in the surface, its durability is the metal's, not the tape's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFit matters more on tape than on almost anything else we sell, because width is physical - a 18mm cassette will not go into a narrower machine. Stencil is fussier still: the machine has to support stencil media, not merely be wide enough. Brother lists 14 machines for this cassette, and several otherwise-capable P-touch models are not among them. The full list is below - if your machine is not on it, ask us rather than assuming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuits these Brother label printers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-E560BTVP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-E310BTVP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-D800W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-P910BT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-P950NW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-P710BT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-P900W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-D600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-D450\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-D400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-E550WVP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-P750W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-P700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT-E300VP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Brother","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50552797724928,"sku":"DSSTe-141","price":38.13,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0863\/5419\/8784\/files\/STe-141__06484.1597602566.500.750.png?v=1791401163","url":"https:\/\/megaschoolsupplies.com.au\/products\/brother-ste-141-stencil-18mm-x-3m-label-cassette","provider":"Mega School Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
