What's special about Mylar® sleeving?
Metallic Mylar is thinly slit and braided with clear PET fibers. It is an innovative solution for adding a mirror finish to any sleevable product. It is readily used in cosmetic applications with dramatic results, such as in show car engine compartments, computer cases(mods), and also in applications where maximum light is crucial.(ie greenhouses). It is so shiny, you'll blind your competition! Metallic Mylar® is braided from .010" monofilament made from PolyEthylene Terephthalate, with a continuous operating temperature of -103°F to 257°F. Its melt temperature is 446°F and is offered in 2 dramatic colors: Gold and Silver. Mylar sleeving is a mildly conductive polyester film that helps with electrical insulation and shielding. It is also compliant with European Union's Restrictions on the use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive.   |
