Product Description
SEFAR® PET 1500 the most comprehensive range of screen printing mesh for an efficient and reproducible stencil production. It meets all the requirements for detail reproduction, homogeneity of face printing, print run consistency and registration accuracy in multi-color printing. The special SEFAR® PET 1500 surface treatment aims to improve adhesion, good
wettability and good antistatic properties. These features allow a high quality and efficient processing of all commercially available screen printing systems.

- Manual or automatic equipment use

Guaranteed tension values
Chart 2 shows the max. guaranteed tension values for a frame size of 1 m x
1 m, slope profile 50/40 mm x 38 mm x 3.2/2.0 mm). For larger frame and
stretching sizes, the guaranteed tension value must be reduced by approximately 4 % for each 0.5 m additional side length.


UV-light undercutting protection
The yellow dyed SEFAR® PET 1500 mesh absorbs the incident UV-A radiation,
thus enabling extremely sharp-edged stencil copies.
