High-Temperature Moisture-Resistant Polyester Film
Often used as a separator when heating parts in an oven, this wear-resistant film can also protect surfaces when etching or sanding. Also called PET and PETE, polyester resists swelling when exposed to moisture. When used as a separator, film should be cut larger than the piece it is being released from.
Film with a coarse texture masks scuffs, scratches, and fingerprints.
Film with a smooth texture releases cleanly from rubber and most synthetic resins. This film is skived, so the edges may curl.

An aluminum coating on one side of this film reflects heat, so it’s widely used as an insulator and in packaging applications. Made of polyester, which is also called PET and PETE, this wear-resistant film is comparable to Mylar.
UV- and Moisture-Resistant Polyester Sheets
- Color: Black
- Temperature Range: -40° to 230°F

- For Use Outdoors: Yes
- Specifications Met: ASTM D5927, ASTM D6261
These black polyester sheets protect from UV rays better than off-white polyester. Strong and semi-rigid, they won't swell in moist environments, so they're often made into pump components and spacers. They’re wear resistant and easy to machine. This material is also called PET and PETE.

Lightweight UV-Resistant PET Foam Cores
- Clarity: Opaque
- Color: White
- Maximum Temperature: 300° F
- Tensile Strength: See table
- Impact Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness Rating: Not Rated
- For Use Outdoors: Yes
When exposed to UV rays, these cores won’t become brittle or break down. Use them to add stiffness to composite sandwiches that may be used outdoors without adding a lot of weight. All of these cores are lighter in weight than PVC, balsa wood, and aluminum honeycomb cores, but not as strong. They’re also moisture resistant and recyclable. These cores are often used in composite layups, structural panels, partitions, and industrial tanks. You can even soften them with heat, place them into a mold, and then cool them to create a variety of different shapes. Those with a higher density are stiffer, stronger, and weigh more than those with a lower density.
Scored cores have cuts in a grid pattern that make them easier to bend and form into complex shapes than plain cores.
