Service Temperature Application Temperature Features -20°F to 240°F (-29°C to 115°C) 40°F to 120°F (5°C to 49°C) • Meets CONEG requirements. • Adhesive dry ingredients are listed by FDA as indirect food contact additives when used in food packaging with minimum opportunity for exposure. See 21 CFR 175.105. • Liner is designed for high-speed die cutting and matrix stripping. Not recommended for sheet on press applications. This liner has been remoisturized after silicone coating to restabilize the sheet and reduce side curl. 3M™ Triangle Void Polyester Label Products FMV01202 • FMV01402 Printing • Gloss topcoat is designed to be printable with a variety of film inks and thermal transfer ribbons. The following inks and thermal transfer ribbons have been evaluated and found to give excellent adhesion when tested with 3M™ Tape 610 and 3M™ Tape 810. However, press conditions vary and proper evaluation using your specific conditions is critical and highly recommended for successful ink and ribbon adhesion.

Which can be done by laminating a label seal to an untreated polyester film test surface. The label seal should be wiped down with a squeegee, allowed to dwell 10 minutes, and then removed to observe the presence and functions of the triangle pattern on both the facestock and the substrate. It is also recommended that the user test each lot of label seals on the actual application surface to assure the function of the “void” message. Dispensing As care should be taken not to disturb the tamper-indicating feature by pre-destructing the triangle void pattern when manually removing the label from the liner, slowly remove the liner from the label at a 90° angle. It is recommended that the user test samples for each roll of label seals by laminating a representative label seal to the specific application surface to assure its function meets expectations. This test can be run after 10 minutes dwell; however, final judgement should be based on 72 hours dwell at room temperature prior to testing. Application The tamper-indicating mechanism (i.e. the “void” message both on the facestock and on the substrate) depends upon adequate adhesion of the label to the substrate. A sufficient bond may not develop on all surfaces due to low surface energy (e.g. PTFE), contaminated or textured surfaces. Therefore, it is important to determine the suitability of the product in the intended application by carefully pretesting. The primary function of the products is to effect a non-transferable (non-reusable) label seal by causing the “void” message to appear on the facestock when removal from the substrate is attempted. As a result of the primary function, a “void” message is also transferred to the substrate and can be removed by hand rubbing or by solvent wiping. Our tamper-indicating product line is designed to indicate tampering by destructing when an attempt is made to remove the label. Since no tamper-indicating feature is 100% tamper proof, careful consideration must be taken when designing label seals. When the consequences of tampering could be severe, such as injury or loss of human life or significant monetary loss, these products are not recommended as the sole means of package or product tamper indication. In these instances, additional methods in combination with the labels should be considered so that the tamperindicating features are commensurate with the requirements of the application. -3- 3M™ Triangle Void Polyester Label Products FMV01202 • FMV01402 Storage Conditions Store under normal conditions of 70°F (21°C) and 50% relative humidity. To minimize the effects of humidity on the products, package the die-cut and printed stock in polyethylene bags. Low density polyethylene (2-4 mils) can help prevent humidity penetration. Shelf Life To obtain best performance, use this product within two years from the date of manufacture.
