Isopropyl Alcohol Labels/Oil Proof Labels
The rigors of industry require labels that work extra hard. Isopropyl alcohol labels can smear or peel off if the wrong materials and adhesives are used. Exposure to Skydrol, xylene, and automotive grease will cause typical labels to fail. Whether you’re in aerospace or oil and gas, you need oil proof labels that can stand up to harsh chemicals and oils.
Alcohol Resistant Labels
Isopropyl alcohol is a highly useful chemical used in many different industries. It easily cleans grease and aviation hydraulic fluid, such as Skydrol. Because isopropyl alcohol is highly flammable, poisonous, and irritating to the eye, bottles of alcohol must be clearly labeled.
Isopropyl alcohol labels must stay put and resist ink smears in order to keep industrial workers safe. However, exposure to isopropyl alcohol and industrial oils breaks down typical permanent adhesives. At Coast Label, we specialize in engineering alcohol resistant labels that will withstand the rigors of your specific industry. Our oil resistant labels use a durable polyester and a special adhesive that resists oil, Skydrol, and isopropyl alcohol.
Benefits of Oil Proof Labels
- Smear-resistant so that labels remain legible
- Resistant to isopropyl alcohol and other harsh cleaning agents
- Resistant to automotive grease
- Resistant to Skydrol
- Permanent adhesive that adheres to flat and curved surfaces
- Weatherproof and UV resistant
Uses of Oil Resistant Labels
Our oil resistant labels are used in a variety of harsh industrial settings. Some of the ways these extra tough labels can be used include:
- Isopropyl alcohol labels: Keep employees safe with alcohol resistant labels that warn of the dangers of isopropyl alcohol.
- Aerospace industries: Because Skydrol is fire resistant and keeps its low viscosity in the cold, it’s widely used across the aerospace industries as a hydraulic fluid. However, Skydrol is highly corrosive and presents a problem for labeling anything that comes in contact with it. Oil proof labels are designed to resist the corrosive effects of Skydrol so that labels on aircraft ground service equipment will stay in place.
- Automotive manufacturing: Automotive grease both lubricates and protects car parts to ensure their longevity. However, grease can break the bond of automotive labels. Oil-resistant labels ensure that automotive labels will remain in place during manufacturing as well as for the life of the car.
- Safety and warning labels: One thing is true for all industrial jobs–safety labels keep workers safe. Oil-proof labels can be used to ensure that labels exposed to industrial chemicals and oils will stay in place when it matters most.
