PET 1500 230 MESH, 48 MICRON THREAD

SPECIFICATIONS:

GENERAL:This high-modulus mesh, woven from monofilament polyester, features outstanding mechanical robustness and chemical resistance. Excellent tear resistance permits high fabric tensions to be achieved with virtually any commercially available stretching system. The stretching behavior is excep- tionally well balanced in both directions, while very good dimensional stability guarantees highly reproducible tension.

ANTI-STATIC PROPERTIES:Thanks to a special anti-static treatment, SEFARPET 1500 has a very low static build-up. That makes for extremely simple and pleasant handling during the stretching process: insertion and gluing are smooth and time-efficient. Because the printing substrate remains largely free of static charge caused by the mesh, printing results are clean and reject rates low - a convincing benefit, especially where high-cost materials are involved.

REPRODUCABLE RELAXATION:SEFAR® PET 1500 has lasting qualities. The tension loss between stretching and printing is low, and remains stable over subsequent print runs. Of course, a stable mesh also results in higher registration accuracy.

BETTER STENCIL ADHESION:SEFAR® PET 1500's advanced surface treatment provides improved mesh wettability characteristics that are required for indirect films, capillary films, emulsions or combined applications. In addition, the unique surface of SEFAR PET 1500 contributes to improved stencil adhesion properties.

UNDERCUTTING PROTECTION: Most of the range is available in both white and yellow - the latter being indispensable for demanding print jobs or high-resolution detail. Manufactured to Sefar proprietary standards, yellow fabric with its light under-cutting protection ensures sharp, sawtooth-free reproduction. Extended exposure latitude compensates minor deviations in exposure time, illumination intensity and distance. The welcome result: highly reproducible stencils, even with fine rasters and halftone gradations, plus considerably sharper edges.

ECONOMY:Working with minimal squeegee pressure and a small snap-off distance benefits the quality of the print and of the stencil service life. Improved wettability and more uniform emulsion distribution increases stencil life and hence productivity. The mesh stays cleaner - it all adds up to longer mesh life.
