Sheeting Orientation:
The American Association of State Highway Transportation
Officials (AASHTO) has recognized that some retroreflective
films are rotationally (orientation) sensitive. Because this impacts
sign luminance, AASHTO has defined a specification to measure
orientation performance. Figure C shows how the orientation
sensitivity is measured. In order for a film to be considered
rotationally insensitive, the average percent difference (shown in
Figure C) must be less than or equal to 20%.
Figure C
When measured for orientation sensitivity as described in
AASHTO M 268-10, all Avery Dennison sheeting, both beaded
and prismatic, pass the specification as rotationally insensitive.
Therefore, no special identification marks or other features (such
as a datum mark, or distinctive seal pattern) are required to
denote optimum orientation for sheeting. Because the user can
expect visual uniformity regardless of orientation, no costly and
cumbersome fabrication techniques are required to orient sheets,
cut sign legend or border tape during sign fabrication.
Specifying agencies and sign fabricators are cautioned that some
retroreflective sheetings, even of the same ASTM Type may not
provide consistent luminance for desired night visibility if the
sheeting is not applied in the optimal, or in uniform orientation.
Agencies and fabricators should be aware of this concern and
discuss the potential effects of rotation on luminance of specific
sheetings with their material supplier before beginning installation
and/or fabrication.
T-1000 & W-1000 Series is
Omni-Directional and passes the
AASHTO specification as being
rotationally insensitive.

DEFINITIONS
Durability: means that the Product in a finished
graphic, panel or sign situated outdoors, subject to the
limitations herein and Avery Dennison Product Data
Sheets and Instructional Bulletins, and applied to
recommended surfaces, will not deteriorate
excessively such that the finished sign, panel or
graphic is ineffective for its identification when viewed
under normal conditions from the intended viewing
distance.
Outdoor Durability: is based on normal middle
European and central North American outdoor
exposure conditions and application to recommended
surfaces. Actual performance life will depend on a
variety of factors, including but not limited to substrate
preparation, exposure conditions and maintenance of
the Product and finished graphic, panel or sign. In case
the finished graphics, panel or sign is in areas of high
temperatures or humidity, in industrially polluted areas
or other areas with air laden particulate matter, and/or
in high altitudes, Outdoor Durability may be reduced.
Please see your local Avery Dennison representative
for changes to warranties based on such localized
conditions.
Vertical Exposure: means that the face of the finished
graphic is ±10° from vertical.
Non-Vertical Exposure: means that the face of the
finished graphic is greater than 10° from vertical and
greater than 5° from horizontal. Retroreflective films
are not warranted for this exposure.
Flat surfaces: means a two dimensional flat surface
without protruding objects.
Weathering Effects: Some degradation of Product
performance over time is considered normal wear.
Slight color fading, chalking, edge lifting, or slight
reduction in gloss or reflectivity due to normal wear
exposure and other natural weathering, environmental
or other conditions or damage caused by tornadoes,
hurricanes, wind, excessive ice buildup or
extraordinary frozen particulate conditions, large hail
stones or other acts of God, do not constitute a breach
of warranty or give rise to any liability by Avery
Dennison.
Printing, Curing and Ink Defects: Ink contaminations,
failures or other defects, or other failures due to
improper printing conditions or settings including, but
not limited to, unsuitable color calibration, incorrect ICC
color profile or incompatible printing, do not constitute
a breach of warranty. Product failure caused by ink
over-saturation, excessive or under curing, failure of
ink to render desired colors on Product, or other
treatment or processing errors are not warranted.
Adhesion to Application Surfaces: This warranty
does not cover the Product if the application surface is
not properly prepared; nor does the warranty cover the
Product or damage to the substrate because the layers
of the substrate separate due to a lower bond between
those layers than the bond between the Product and
the top layer of the substrate, or surfaces which
subsequently crack, peel, outgas, or become damaged
beneath the Product
INDEPENDENT TESTING REQUIRED
All statements, technical information and
recommendations about Avery Dennison products are
based upon tests and information believed to be
reliable but do not constitute a guarantee or warranty
of any kind. All Avery Dennison products are sold with
