Features

  • Gloss topcoated 4.0 mil white polypropylene (vinyl alternative) provides consistent surface smoothness and excellent dimensional stability
  • Printable via resin & wax/resin thermal transfer; UV & solvent screen; UV, solvent & water flexo; laser (toner); and narrow-format UV inkjet
  • Permanent acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive bonds well to low- and high-surface energy plastics, painted metal, powder-coated paint, polycarbonate and fiberglass
  • High shear and high peel adhesive resists cold flow and oozing
  • Adhesive bonds well to base film substrates
  • 90 lb. moisture stable polycoated release liner is ideal for roll-to-sheet and sheet-form converting on most narrow-format presses

Additional Details

All narrow-format UV inkjet systems are different; therefore, we recommend "fit-for-use" testing. 

For laser diecutability, please check with your equipment manufacturer.
