Tinley Park, IL 60487 Customer Service: 800-777-3300 TDS: Effective Date: Revision: GMH2 16JUL12 Technical Data Sheet Page 1 of 3 2007 PANDUIT Corp TDS: GMH2 Panduit GMH2 Film Lamination This specification is intended to outline the physical and chemical properties of PANDUIT’s GMH2 material and include the following printable material identifiers: Printable Material Suffixes Y6T AFT Y7C Y7T AET AIT ACT AGT Y6C PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS: Description: Material is RoHS compliant (European Union directive 2002/95/EC). GMH2 consists of a topcoated 2 mil polyester film laminated to a 8.0 mil polyolefin film. This material is halogen free. Print Methods: This material is recommended for thermal transfer printing. Standard Colors: White, Yellow, Red, Orange, Gray, Blue and Green. Thickness: 10.0 +/- 0.5 mils Service Temperature Range: -58°F to 221°F (-50°C to 105°C) Minimum Application Temperature: 50°F (10°C) Storage Conditions: Store at 70°F (21°C) and 50% Relative Humidity. For cassette products do not exceed 95°F. PROPERTIES: PERFORMANCE: Tensile Strength: MD: 70 +/- 7.0 lbs./inch width (PSTC-131) TD: 80 +/- 8 lbs./inch width (PSTC-131) Elongation: MD: 65% +/- 10% (PSTC-131) UV Resistance: *3000 hours no visual change observed for both white and colored tags (ASTM G154). 5000 hours no visual change observed for white but significant fade observed for colored tags but print still legible (ASTM G154). 10,000 hours no change observed for white, complete fade for colored tags but print still legible (ASTM G154) *3000 hours equates to 5 years of assimilated outdoor UV exposure. Tear-Propagation Resistance: MD: 250 gms (8.8 oz) (ASTM D1938) TD: 325 gms (11.5 oz) (ASTM D1938) Humidity Resistance: 30 days at 1000F(370C) and 95% R.H, no visible change observed Abrasion Resistance: CS-10 wheels/250 gm wt/50 cycles, no visible change observed

Significant browning of the material observed when exposed for 4 hours at 2500C (4820F) Long Term Low Service Temp: 30 days at -40F (-40C), no visible change observed. CHEMICAL/SOLVENT RESISTANCE: The testing was conducted at room temperature. Samples were thermal transfer printed with Panduit RMR*BL , RMER*BL black ribbon and RMR*WH, RMER*WH white ribbon on the Panduit TDP43MY/TDP43ME printer. Separate sets were conditioned for 24 hours before being immersed in the following solvents for a period of 1 hour and 24 hours. After the samples were removed from the immersed solvents, they were rubbed 10 times with a lint free gauze. Visual observations were noted for any smear or loss of legibility.
