From drafting design concepts to electric insulation and protecting furniture, a Mylar sheet will come to the rescue. Our clear polyester film rolls, also known as Mylar film, are a flexible plastic that has countless uses. Draw on Mylar, laminate with it or use it to wrap items so they don’t collect dust.

When you need a Mylar roll, you can get it from TAP Plastics. We sell TransPet CAD2-F PET. It is an ultra-clear, glossy two-sided chemically treated polyester film that provides enhanced adhesion of ink, coatings and adhesives. CAD2-F is manufactured with materials compliant with FDA regulations.

What is Mylar?

Mylar is generically used to refer to PET, polyester film or plastic sheet. However, it is also a registered trademark owned by Mylar Specialty Films (previously Dupont Teijin Films) to brand a specific family of plastic sheeting products made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

Mylar sheets are preferred throughout various industries because they have high tensile strength and solvent resistance along with excellent flatness, chemical, dimensional and thermal stability. This polyester film also helps stop water and gasses from getting through.

Mylar rolls can be used to produce artist overlays, charts, layouts and other projects in which superior clarity is essential. This durable polymer resin is made by stretching the synthetic fibers of PET. Since its invention, Mylar film has been used in a wide variety of electronic, graphics and industrial applications. It provides excellent insulation and can be used as an emergency blanket for humans or to cover plants on cold nights. The optical clarity makes a Mylar sheet an excellent window covering.

Our polyester film is coated to accept printing labels and color proofing. It’s excellent for masking, overhead projection transparencies, engineering drawing and drafting. This Mylar polyester film is FDA-approved for contact with food, let you utilize it for food packaging. Mylar is also ideally suited to printing, die-cutting, barrier protection, apparel and other industrial applications.
