Polyester liner contributes to improved die-cutting
3M Polyester Overlaminating Film 7745FL utilizes a matte clear polyester that is recommended for optimum durability and appearance in dot matrix and hand writable applications. The matte coating resists degradation from scuffing, chemicals, moisture, and wide temperature fluctuations. 3M Adhesive 400 offers excellent low temperature performance and long term aging for resistance to yellowing in outdoor applications.
Designed specifically for protective laminating applications, our 3M™ Overlaminate Label Materials offer facestocks that resist abrasions, scuffs and chemicals. The 55-lb. densified kraft paper liner provides excellent stability for a range of conversions including rotary die cutting, flatbed die cutting and automatic dispensing.
