SPECIAL FEATURES

B-483 is specifically designed to adhere to powder coated surfaces.

Performance properties tested on B-483 printed with Series R6000, R6000 Halogen Free and R4900 ribbons.  Printed samples of B-483 were laminated to aluminum before exposure to the indicated environmental condition. Results the same for both ribbons unless noted otherwise.

Samples printed with Series R6000, R6000 Halogen Free and R4900 ribbons.  Testing was conducted after 24 hour dwell. Testing consisted of 5 cycles of 10 minute immersions in the specified chemical reagent followed by 30 minute recovery periods. After final immersion, samples rubbed 10 times with cotton swab saturated with test fluid.

ToughStripe^TM labels (B-483 colors overlaminated with B-634 clear polyester overlaminate) designed for use in cartridge form with the GlobalMark® 2 and BMP^TM 71 label printers were tested in the following chemical reagents.  Samples were allowed to dwell 24 hours at room temperature prior to testing.  Dip testing consisted of 5 cycles of 10 minute immersions in the specified chemicals followed by 30 minute recovery periods.  Samples were immersed in the chemical reagent for 7 days for the 7 day immersion test.   Testing was conducted at room temperature.
