Adhesive data sheet
3M™ 467: the adhesive standard on Strongest-tier tags.
3M 467 is a 2-mil high-performance acrylic transfer adhesive. It is the industry benchmark for industrial asset tags because it bonds to surfaces that release standard acrylics: powdercoat, polyethylene, polypropylene, painted steel, anodized aluminum, and rough cast metal.
