Product Description
ORALITE®
reflective film series 5650RA FLEET ENGINEER GRADE with Rapid Air®
Technology is a tough weather &
solvent resistance product which boasts high flexibility combined with excellent corrosion resistance. The “Rapid Air”
technology enables easy and quick application reducing the incidence of bubbles & creases, especially of large-sized
applications.
The material is plotter cuttable and is especially developed for high-quality commercial and fleet livery to produce
lettering, markings and decorations. The material can be applied to moderately curved surfaces with rivets or
corrugated substrates, due to its special cast PVC construction.
ORALITE®
5650RA is composed of catadioptric glass beads which are embedded in a transparent layer of plastic
material (design A, formerly Type I).
Retroreflectivity
ORALITE®
5650RA meets the performance requirements of ECE 104 class D and is available as 5600D RA product
with watermark. Values of retroreflection as shown in Table 1 are complied with when measured in accordance with
the corresponding specifications using CIE standard illuminant A, and the provisions of CIE No.54.2.
Color
ORALITE®
5650RA is available in 15 different colors (see table 1 for full list of available colors). ORALITE®
5650Ra-
070 displays a black color at daylight. When being illuminated in darkness, it appears silver to silver-grey.
Adhesive
The adhesive consists of a solvent polyacrylate, permanent pressure sensitive adhesive. The product features a low
initial tack and a positionable adhesive due to the Rapid Air®
Technology. The release paper (145 g/m2
) has a PE
coating applied to silicone-coated paper on either side. As the product and batch number are applied to the silicone
coated paper, all production parameters and raw materials can be completely traced.
Application/Processing
ORALITE®
5650RA was especially developed for high-quality commercial and fleet livery. Surfaces to which the
material will be applied must be thoroughly cleaned from dust, grease or any contamination which could affect the
adhesion of the material. Freshly lacquered or painted surfaces should be completely cured. The compatibility of
selected lacquers and paints should be tested by the user, prior to application of the material. The self adhesive
reflective material can only be used for dry application. For other applications the user is fully responsible for
evaluating the suitability of the product, and for any risks associated with that use.
ORALITE®
5650RA can be screen printed with ORALITE® 5018 screen printing ink or inkjet printed with solvent based
inks, UV- or Latex inks. Please refer to the chosen ink manufacturer’s instructions to determine if an application
laminate is required, If required, it is recommended that the material is laminated with ORAGUARD®
290F or
ORAGUARD®
293F in order to provide increased UV protection.
While the use of heat will help to partially remove the product, a solvent based adhesive remover maybe required to
completely remove any residual adhesive. Please refer to the Practical Information published by Orafol for full
instructions or contact your ORAFOL Reflective Solutions Division representative for advice relating to the above.
Note: All ORALITE®
products are manufactured within an ISO 9001:2008 controlled manufacturing environment &
