Product Description

MHL Matt 3mil 38" x 500' low temperature laminating film eliminates reflection and glare while hiding minor imperfections in the output. MHL Matt 3.0 mil provides moderate UV protection for indoor and short term outdoor graphics. Typical applications for MHL Matt are xerographic, offset, or inkjet bond output for viewing where there is little control over lighting conditions. This makes MHL Matt ideal for the creation of POP displays, ceiling graphics, trade show signs, etc. Get 38" x 500' of 3mil MHL Matt UV Low Temp film with every order. Product number MM38503.

Item Specifications

  • Specifically developed for multi-heat roller laminators (MHL) and hotshoe laminators
  • Co-extruded for a carefully balanced ratio of polyester film to adhesive.
  • Higher clarity for more vibrant colors, reduced "orange peel", greater rigidity (which reduces wrinkles and waves) and better adhesive flow characteristics (wet out).
  • Available in a variety of thicknesses and finishes from standard gloss and lustre finishes to scratch-resistant films suitable for outdoor applications
  • Suitable for both single sided and double sided laminating (encapsulation) of photographic, electrostatic, inkjet-bond, xerographic and lithographic output, as well as many more applications.
  • Incorporate UV absorbers for excellent protection from damaging UV rays.

Tips and Technical Data

Tips For Applying MHL UV Thermal Films:

  • Consider webbing your laminator with a gloss film on top and a luster film on the bottom supply shaft. This will allow you to change the surface finish by feeding in your image either face up or face down.
  • Co-extruded for a carefully balanced ratio of polyester film to adhesive.
  • Use your idler bar to increase the area of contact between the heated rollers and the film.
  • To allow for proper heat recovery, laminators with smaller diameter rollers require a slower processing speed and / or higher operating temperature for the best results.
  • MHL laminating films bond while they are cooling (thermoplastic). This means that it is important that you create a steady uniform tension with the pull rollers (and a cooling system for thicker films) to ensure a smooth, flat encapsulated print without waves or wrinkles.
