Avery Dennison DOL 1400 Z Series

What it is

Ultra-flexible cast vinyl overlaminates designed to protect digitally printed images on vehicle graphics: 30-micron clear cast face film (50 microns with adhesive) with permanent acrylic adhesive, in three finishes — DOL 1460 Z Gloss, DOL 1470 Z Lustre and DOL 1480 Z Matt. Avery Dennison's MPI 1105 documents name the 1460 Z and 1480 Z as that film's recommended protection.

Who it may be relevant for: Wrap and signage producers laminating printed cast films — the protective half of a print-film-plus-overlaminate system, applied by roll laminator or squeegee per Avery's application guidance.

UK market notes

  • Same manufacturer-named UK distributor network as the MPI films (Avery Dennison's own EU-site news page names the UK distributors; a find-a-distributor locator exists) — confirm current stocking with a listed distributor.
  • Roll widths and lengths are not stated on the fetched data sheet; the numeric application-temperature guidance is deferred by the data sheet to Avery's technical bulletin TB 5.4, which was not fetched.

Confirm the exact supplied model, electrical configuration and warranty with the manufacturer or a UK authorised distributor before purchasing.

Documented compatibility

Only relationships the manufacturer (or, where marked, a distributor) states in writing. Absence from this list does not mean incompatibility.

  • Avery Dennison MPI cast print films (incl. MPI 1105)the DOL data sheet recommends these overlaminates for Avery MPI cast media; the MPI 1105 documents name the 1460 Z/1480 Z specifically. Manufacturer-confirmed (EU statement)[1] · verified 2026-07-17Both statements are Avery Dennison's own; the film-specific pairing sits on the MPI 1105 side.

Limitations

  • Roll formats are unpublished on the fetched data sheet.
  • Numeric application-temperature guidance lives in Avery technical bulletin TB 5.4, which was not fetched — consult it before application-critical decisions.
  • Durability ratings are Avery's, under stated vertical middle-European conditions.
