ORALITE® 5650RA vs ORALITE® 5600RA - What's the Difference?
What’s the difference between ORALITE® 5650RA and ORALITE® 5600RA? Not much. 5650RA has been available in North America for several years now. 5600RA is new for 2020.
The key difference is the adhesive. 5600RA has an updated adhesive that has a lower initial tack and is more repositionable. Move it up and down and side to side during installation to get the perfect alignment. Additionally, 5600RA is removable for up to 4 years after installation. These two characteristics make 5600RA better suited for wrapping and vehicle graphics. Technically, 5650RA is considered repositionable and removable. In real life, however, 5650RA is on the lower end of the scale.
Most features carry over. Both are inkjet printable; both offer up to 7 year outdoor durability; both are moderately conformable; both have ORAFOL®’s RapidAir® micro channel technology for faster, easier installation.
