3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tape 9466B, White, 5.25 in x 360 yd, 3.5 mil, 1 Roll/Case, Restricted

3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tape 9466B is formulated for attaching bar-code labels to blood bags and pharmaceutical containers. It features a double adhesive system for smooth surfaces. The system includes a 2.0 mil primary Adhesive 400, a high tack acrylic adhesive which is excellent for bonding to smooth surfaces. A 1 mil secondary Adhesive 300 is formulated for bonding to a variety of surfaces including plastics. These adhesives are applied to a .5 mil polypropylene film liner which adds stability and flexibility, ideal for medical bottles and bags. Both are designed for short term temperature exposure up to 250°F (121°C). A 3.5 mil silicone-coated liner adds strength and stability during flatbed or rotary die-cutting of label sets.

3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tape 9466B features 3M™ Adhesive 300, which has high initial adhesion especially to low surface energy plastics. It moves quickly to speed lamination of textured plastics, foams, fabrics and coated papers. This acrylic Adhesive 300 has been tested to ASTM procedures for peel adhesion, temperature and humidity as well as resistance to UV, fuels, acids and detergents. The high tack adhesive is also tested for adhesion on a range of surfaces including polypropylene, polyester, ABS, polycarbonate and stainless steel.

3M™ Adhesive 400 delivers excellent adhesion to uncoated papers and other smooth surfaces including glass. It delivers good clarity and UV resistance for window label applications. This adhesive is also used for bonding a wide variety of similar and dissimilar materials such as metals wood paints, and many plastics. It is commonly used by medical device manufacturers for its minimal interference in a variety of diagnostic test kits. It can withstand short term temperature exposure up to 250°F (121°C).

In general, 3M adhesive transfer tapes are rolls of pressure sensitive adhesive pre-applied to a special release liner. The tape consists of adhesive only, and does not have any type of carrier material such as film. For application the tape is positioned adhesive side down to a surface and the liner is removed, exposing the backside adhesive to the joining surface.

Since 1925 when a lab assistant invented masking tape, 3M has been applying science to life developing adhesive products and technologies that help entire industries and individual businesses worldwide. The work that began with a single 3M engineer now spans decades and generations. And all of it goes into each industrial labeling and adhesive product like 3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tape 9466B, to help businesses operate faster, better and more efficiently.

It meets piggy-back requirements for label sets such as photographic bar-code labels, and in conjunction with approved printed face materials it meets FDA uniform labeling and bar-code readable verification requirements. It is excellent for custom labels and protected printed graphics.
