  • Indication label to be adhered to rubber tire and material of label
    Patent number: 5358772
    Abstract: A material for an indication label to be adhered to a rubber tire. The label is designed to be disposed on an unvulcanized raw rubber tire and then fixed to the finished tire by vulcanization using heat and pressure. The indication label having a label base material with a heat-resistant plastic film and an abrasive surface coating layer formed on the upper surface of the plastic film. The abrasive surface being composed of a hardened resin and filler. An indication defined by an ink layer is disposed on the abrasive surface. A rubber adhesive laminated on the lower surface of the plastic film adheres the label to the tire. The label is constructed by forming the ink layer on the exterior side of the abrasive surface coating layer. The abrasive surface having a profile and roughness for preserving the quality of the indication.
