173216 - Miller CE Mark Replacement Decal

Maintain Compliance with Genuine Miller OEM Labeling

The Miller Electric 173216 Label, CE European Community Mark is a critical component for maintaining the regulatory status and professional appearance of your industrial welding equipment. In the world of heavy fabrication and machinery, the "CE" mark (Conformité Européenne) is more than just a symbol; it is a declaration that the equipment complies with all applicable European health, safety, and environmental protection standards. For facilities that operate internationally or adhere to strict ISO and safety audit requirements, ensuring that all equipment bears legible and correct markings is mandatory.

This specific label is a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part produced by Miller Electric. Choosing OEM replacement labels over generic alternatives is vital for longevity. Industrial environments are notoriously harsh on surface markings; exposure to high radiant heat, UV light from welding arcs, spatter, oil, and cleaning solvents can rapidly degrade inferior materials. The Miller 173216 is manufactured using high-grade industrial substrates and adhesives designed to resist these stressors, ensuring the mark remains visible and intact for the service life of the machine.

Replacing damaged, painted-over, or peeling labels is a standard procedure during machine refurbishment or routine maintenance. A missing CE mark can raise questions during safety inspections or resale assessments. By installing the correct Miller 173216 label, maintenance teams ensure the equipment reflects its original factory specifications. The label features a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing that bonds strongly to metal and powder-coated surfaces, provided the application area is clean and dry. Whether you are replacing a single worn label or refurbishing a fleet of power sources, this part guarantees the fit, finish, and durability expected from Miller Electric products.

Technical Application Notes

For optimal adhesion, the target surface on the welding machine should be thoroughly cleaned with a non-residue degreaser (such as isopropyl alcohol) to remove any oils, dust, or silicone contaminants. Apply the label at room temperature and apply firm pressure across the entire surface to activate the adhesive bond. This label is sized specifically to fit the designated labeling areas on compatible Miller power sources and wire feeders.
