Product Overview
Oralite V92 Daybright DOT-C2 Conspicuity Tape is a tough weather-and solvent resistant product designed for rugged outdoor use on the sides and rear of trucks, trailers, buses, agricultural equipment, utility vehicles, automobiles and all types of mobile and industrial equipment. ORALITE V92 Daybright DOT-2 conspicuity tape is provided with the DOT-C2 certification mark as per NHTSA 49CFR571.108. The tape complies with FMVSS 108, DOT-C2.
Product Construction
The tape is composed of cube corner (microprism) retroreflective elements integrally bonded to a flexible, smooth-surfaced, tough and weather-resistant UV stabilized polymeric film. The prism surfaces are coated with a vacuum deposition of aluminum to provide a mirror surface to the prism facets. The resulting tape is not more than 0.008" thick and comes with an aggressive high-tack pressure sensitive adhesive.
Reflectivity
ORALITE V92 Daybright DOT-C2 Conspicuity tape shall meet or exceed the minimum coefficient of retroreflection shown in Table 1. The tape shall be measured in accordance with ASTM E810. Rotation angles of 0 and 90 degrees are measured and averaged.
Color
ORALITE V92 Daybright DOT-C2 Conspicuity tape is available in white, red and alternating red and white striping. The colors feature Daybright technology to provide brighter more vivid daytime colors than previously available in metalized microprism tape, and conform to the requirements in Table 2 when tested in accordance with ASTM practices E308 & E1164 and standards E1347 & E1349. The measured values are the average of eight readings. The test sample is rotated 45° about its own axis after each reading.
Adhesive
The adhesive is protected by a release liner which shall be removed by peeling, without soaking in water or other solvents. The adhesive produces such a bond that a 1" (50 mm) strip shall support a 1 3/4 pound (0.79 kg) weight for 5 minutes without the strip peeling for a distance of more than 2" (50 mm) when applied to a smooth aluminum surface as specified in the ASTM D4956, section 7.5 adhesion test.
Impact Resistance
Following application to a smooth surface aluminum rectangle, 0.020" by 3" by 6", the specimen is conditioned for 24 hours at 72 F and 50% relative humidity. The tape shall show no cracking when the face of the panel is subjected to an impact of a two pound weight with a 5/8" rounded tip dropped from a 100 in/lb setting on a Gardner variable impact tester, IG-1120.
Flexibility
The tape is conditioned for 24 hours at 72 F and 50% relative humidity. The release liner is removed and the tape is sufficiently flexible to show no cracking when bent in one second's time around a 1/8" diameter mandrel with the adhesive contacting the mandrel.
Solvent Resistance
ORALITE V92 Daybright DOT-C2 Conspicuity tape meets the requirements of LS-300C solvent resistance, section 3.6.7, when tested as specified in Table VI, test method 4.4.6.
Specular Gloss
The tape shall have a specular gloss of not less than 40 when tested in accordance with ASTM method D523 at an angle of 85 degrees.
Shrinkage
A 9" x 9" specimen of the tape with liner is conditioned a minimum of one hour at 72 F and 50% relative humidity. The liner is then removed and the specimen is placed on a flat surface with the adhesive side up. Ten minutes after the liner is removed and again after 24 hours, the specimen is measured to determine the amount of dimensional change. The specimen will not shrink in any dimension more than 1/32" in 10 minutes and 1/8" in 24 hours.
Application Instructions
Material must be applied when the air and surface temperature is 65 F or above. Use a clean towel and Isopropyl alcohol, or similar, to wipe the surface before application. If any air bubbles are trapped, use a pin to puncture the bubble and a squeegee to push the air towards the pin hole.
Warranty
ORALITE V92 Daybright DOT-C2 Conspicuity tape has a 5 year manufacturer warranty. Please contact ORAFOL Americas for details.
