Flammability Resistance: 3M™ Scotchmate™ Reclosable Fasteners SJ3518FR and
SJ3519FR have not been tested to other standard flammability tests such as FMVSS-302,
ASTM E-162, ASTM E-662, BSS-7239, UL94 and others.
Environmental Effects: Temperatures down to -20°F (-29°C) increases the typical
closure strengths. If products will be exposed to outdoor weathering or ultraviolet exposure
then black is suggested or our polyester 3M™ Scotchmate™ Reclosable Fasteners
SJ3586FR or SJ3587FR can be evaluated.
Water (Humidity) Resistance: Closure strength of nylon hook and loop fasteners may
decrease after prolonged exposure to moisture due to water absorption by the cut nylon
ends for hook products. Closure strength is regained when dried. Improved water resistance
of the closure can be obtained by using polyester hook and loop (Scotchmate reclosable
fasteners SJ3586FR or SJ3587FR). Once bonded the adhesive has high resistance to
moisture under typical use conditions.
Volatile Outgassing: Volatile outgassing, as per ASTM E595, is one important test
in determining the suitability of materials for spacecraft. Generally products with acrylic
or no adhesive have lower volatile outgassing values. Scotchmate reclosable fasteners
SJ3518FR and SJ3519FR have not been tested for outgassing and would not be expected
to pass ASTM E595. Products tested at the Goddard Space Flight Center can be found at
the following web site: http://outgassing.nasa.gov/. If flame resistance is not critical, then
our nylon 3M™ Scotchmate™ Reclosable Fasteners SJ3571, SJ3572 and SJ3595 or our
polyester 3M™ Scotchmate™ Reclosable Fasteners SJ3576 or SJ3577 could be evaluated.
Sterilization/Autoclaving: Scotchmate reclosable fasteners SJ3518FR and SJ3519FR
have not been exposed to gas or steam sterilization, or autoclaving. Plain back products
such as nylon 3M™ Scotchmate™ Reclosable Fasteners SJ3418FR, SJ3419FR or
polyester 3M™ Scotchmate™ Reclosable Fasteners SJ3486FR or SJ3487FR have not
been exposed to sterilization or autoclaving, but would be expected to perform better than
adhesively coated products.
Washing and Dry Cleaning: Scotchmate reclosable fasteners SJ3518FR and SJ3519FR,
attached to fabrics will typically shrink less than 5% unless the fabric has greater shrinkage
amounts. Washing or dry cleaning of these products is not recommended due to adhesive
softening that could transfer trace adhesive residues to other materials.
Fungus Resistance: Scotchmate reclosable fasteners SJ3518FR and SJ3519FR have not
been tested for fungus resistance per ASTM G-21 nor MIL STD 810F Method 508.5 and
should be evaluated by the customer under conditions applicable to the expected end use.
Static Discharge: Scotchmate reclosable fasteners SJ3518FR and SJ3519FR have not been
tested for static charge released during liner removal, closure opening, or adhesive removal
from the substrate once a fastener has been applied. If your application requires use of these
fasteners in areas where static discharge is of a concern, the fasteners should be tested under
expected use conditions.
