Description:
B-722 is a clear polyester film with an acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive and a translucent printable coating specially formulated for laser printers and toners.
B-722 is designed for applications like rating and serial plates, that utilize alphanumerics, barcodes, graphic symbols and logos that require nameplate-like quality.
B-722 is formulated specially for laser printers. The material offers high print resolution, good solvent resistance, smudge resistance and moderate to high temperature performance.
Brady B-722 meets the requirements of a halogen-free material per DIN VDE 0472 part 815. (Statement based on review of product construction and confirmatory halogen content test run at an independent test laboratory.)
