    High-Temperature Polyester Film

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. High-Temperature 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.
    Skived—Skived products are more likely to curl than extruded and molded products.
    Smooth Texture—Film with a smooth texture releases cleanly from rubber and most synthetic resins.

    Chemical-Resistant Ultra-Low-Friction PTFE Film

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Chemical-Resistant Ultra-Low-Friction PTFE Film.
    PTFE has a naturally slippery surface that allows objects to easily slide across it. It resists most solvents and stands up to extreme temperatures. It’s also an excellent electrical insulator.
    Skived—Skived products are more likely to curl than extruded and molded products.
    Rough Texture—The rough texture masks scratches, scuffs, and fingerprints.
    FDA Standard—For adhesive-back film that is FDA compliant, the film meets the standard, but the adhesive does not.

    Chemical-Resistant Ultra-Low-Friction Film Made from Teflon® PTFE

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Chemical-Resistant Ultra-Low-Friction Film Made from Teflon® PTFE.
    This film is made with virgin Teflon® PTFE resins. It can handle extreme temperatures and resists most solvents. It’s also an excellent electrical insulator. PTFE has a naturally slippery surface that allows objects to easily slide across it. This film is skived, so the edges may curl.
    Skived—Skived products are more likely to curl than extruded and molded products.
    Etched Texture—Products with an etched texture have one side that’s scuffed to readily accept an adhesive; the other side is smooth.
