NADCO® Smooth Cling Films utilize a unique acrylic adhesive system that allows the adhesive to flow on to a surface with little to no application pressure. The self wetting adhesive is nearly ultra-clear which provides excellent transparency. These protective label stocks are ideal for use in many industrial and commercial applications. Some typical applications include: printed window advertisements and protecting mobile handheld displays during shipment from the manufacturer to end user, printed clear labels, protective over laminates, and surface protection.

Features

Features

N/A
  • Ultra-clear, high transparency film and adhesive combination-suitable for display panels.
  • Removable adhesive-easily removable from many surfaces with no adhesive residue.
  • PET linered product allows for die-cutting to any shape and is suitable for high-speed, automatic dispensing.
  • PET face material-much higher temperature resistance than PE protective Films.
  • Before application the surfaces must be free from oil, fat, dust and solvents. Best results are achieved when applied between 50°F and 104°F.
  • The product has a high transparency (low haze).
  • The adhesive is cleanable with water so it may be re-used.

Applications

Application Ideas

N/A
  • Protect window apertures and displays in electronics applications.
  • Temporary protection of sensitive surfaces against dirt, dust and damage during processing, storage and mounting etc.
  • Low level of adhesion and is suitable for protection of many surfaces including: Glass, Varnished/hard coated surfaces, aluminum and plastic surfaces.
  • Printed window film and advertisements

Printing
