Application

Helmet Emblems are designed for marking of and application to hardhats and safety helmets.

Properties

• Face film: PVC, polymeric, transparent
• Thickness: ~ 80 μm
• Adhesive: pressure sensitive polyacrylate square quantity: ~ 35 g/m²
• Release liner: double sided PE coated paper

Limitations of use

To ensure suitability always test the application of helmet emblems under actual application – and end-use conditions, before starting production.
The following factors will adversely affect adhesion of a pressure-sensitive adhesive:

• dusty, dirty, oily or oxidized surfaces
• mould release agents on blow-moulded plastic surfaces
• low surface energy substrates, such as: polyethylene, polypropylene

Physical properties

• Adhesive strength (ASTM D903):
  • Applied on stainless steel:
    • immediately: ~ 12,5
    • N/25mm after 1 week: ~ 22
    • N/25mm

Dimensional stability

Applied onto aluminium max. -0,45% after 48 hours stored at 70 °C (158 °F) (25 x 25 cm).

Chemical resistance

In a 24 hours test, the applied film is resistant to most petroleum based oils, greases and aliphatic solvents, mild acids, alkaline and salts.

Recommended restrictions apply

• EN397:2012+A1:2012 is the standard to which most industrial safety helmets in Europe are conforming.
• The standard requires a mandatory warning: ‘do not apply paints, solvents, adhesives or self-adhesive labels, except in accordance with instructions from the helmet manufacturer. This is intended to prevent uncontrolled use of paints, solvents, adhesives, or self-adhesives on safety helmets by the user. Most industrial safety helmets are made from thermoplastic materials. Adhesives are chemicals that are designed to interact with any surface to which they are applied to.
• Check your local guidelines in your country before applying stickers to helmets. The standard does not require any testing related to the use of stickers.
