Mandatory Appendix Xxi Adhesive Attachment of Nameplates: Record No. 15-2460

This document provides requirements for attaching nameplates to items using adhesive systems. It specifies that: - Nameplate attachment procedures using pressure sensitive acrylic adhesives must be qualified in writing and include factors like temperature ranges, materials, surfaces, and nameplate thickness. - Qualification tests must be done according to standard UL-969-82 and ensure the nameplate has over 8 lbs of adhesion after all exposure conditions, including low temperatures. - Any changes to the qualified procedure or adhesive system require requalification. Packages of nameplates must be labeled with the adhesive application date.
