I. Scope

Thermal Transfer Printable Label Material for application to housing substrates, including plastic, paper, box-board, or metal, as well as metal shelving.

Applications: Barcode or other labels affixed to metal, plastic, paper, or box-board substrates for housing and storage.

II. Requirements

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) requires pressure sensitive adhesive roll labels for use in thermal transfer printers for application to housing substrates, including plastic, paper, box-board, or metal, as well as metal shelving.

1. Dimensions: The labels will be required in the following dimensions:

2" x 0.5" labels, 3" core and 8.38 OD, 0.1875" label gap (0.625" repeat) with perforation between labels, 10,000 per roll.

3.75" x 2.375" labels, 3" core and 8.38 OD, .1875" or 0.125" label gap with perforation between labels, 2,500 per roll.

3.75" x 3.35" labels, 3" core and 8.38 OD, 0.1875" or 0.125" label gap with perforation between labels, 1,700 per roll.

2. Composition: The face-stock material must be a polypropylene substrate bearing an acrylic polymer adhesive with polyester release liner.

A. Face-Stock Options
Polypropylene: White opaque film, 1-2 mil thick, biaxial orientation preferred. The polypropylene must not contain plasticizers.

B. Adhesive
The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer must possess high permanence characteristics such that labels, once applied, remain attached permanently and can be removed only with difficulty. The adhesive must be clearly identifiable as an acrylic polymer or copolymer by its infrared spectrum.
3. Bond Strength: The adhesive must exhibit sufficient bond strength for the label to support a test weight of 200 grams for 10 minutes for a sample of 1 by 2.5 inches. The test procedure is a 90-degree peel test modified from ASTM D2860/D2860M-04, Procedure B, in which the test substrate is metal, plastic, paper, and paper board.

4. Other Label Properties:
A. The label face-stock should provide a proper surface characteristics, so must be able to accept and retain a clean, legible, abrasion-resistant image with good ink adhesion from qualified thermal transfer printers and ink-ribbons.
B. The label stock must be compatible with hard-resin thermal transfer ink ribbons; wax or wax-resin ribbons are not acceptable.
C. The release liner must allow for easy and complete peeling of the face-stock without shearing of the adhesive layer.
D. The label stock must not emit odors deemed detrimental to the work and/or storage environment in NARA according to TAPPI T483.

5. Workmanship
A. The label sheet must lie flat without any curling, and permit problem-free self-feeding from a stacking paper tray.
B. All label edges will be cut square and clean, and of the appropriate size(s) specified.

III. RESPONSIBILITY FOR TESTS

The Contractor is responsible for quality control to ensure the specifications of this contract are met. The Contractor shall provide test results to the Contract Specialist (CS) and/or Contracting Officer (CO), for each production lot used to provide supplies under this contract. The test results shall display, at a minimum, the characteristics listed below and shall be provided at least 30 days prior to shipping any items from the production lot under this contract.

Therefore, the test results and ten samples of each label size purchased shall be sent to the CS within 14 days after award of the contract. Additionally, the Contractor shall provide a sample of a new production lot at any time, upon request of the Government.
