I believe this is what we used in the shipyards to label the cables on
the ship I was stationed on. They are made from 316 Stainless steel.
Download the Brady Catalog and look at page 262 for more sizes.

Tried colored tape (including the best 3M) but found it fades after a
short period (like a year) exposed to my wind. salt water and UV
environment. (OK in the closed junction box but not on the long
exposed runs to and from)
I faintly remember that there was aluminum or soft copper cable
surrounds that the military used where one could write into or
prestamp the material before attaching, indenting the surface pretty
deep. Have not found a source for these.
But maybe you folks have some other good ideas. My wife suggested the
aluminum tags she uses for her roses and other flowers but the little
wire that holds the tag to the item must be a size 28 or smaller, I
can imagine how long a fluttering tag like that would last, a few
days and it would rust out or be torn off.
