Product Description
MHL Gloss 10mil 61" x 250' UV Low Melt films offer superior clarity and lower melting temperatures. The adhesive used is formulated to activate at temperatures as low as 190 F - 220 F. MHL Gloss UV films are ideal for encapsulation of xerographic and inkjet-bond output. While many operators prefer using 3.0 mil MHL Gloss UV on the top and a 5.0 or 10 mil film on the bottom for added rigidity, any combination of thicknesses will provide bright, punch colors and optimum clarity. Get 61" x 250' of 10mil MHL Gloss UV Low Melt film with every order. Product number MGD61210.

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
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.
