Narrow-Width PET Films USA. Big Impact | PET Films & Precision Converting
In high-speed packaging, tape manufacturing, and industrial converting, the smallest details often make the biggest difference. Narrow-width PET films—engineered and delivered with precision—can improve machine efficiency, reduce scrap, and enable new applications. Across the USA, converters and OEMs rely on precision slitting, roll conditioning, and adhesive-ready PET films to achieve consistent results.
At Pilcher Hamilton Corporation (PHC), we specialize in narrow-width converting and machine-friendly films. Our expertise includes slitting services with tight tolerances, winding and rewinding for roll conditioning, and high-performance substrates such as high COF / low slip PET and adhesive & silicone-coated base films. Backed by PHC’s complete service portfolio, USA converters gain precision and reliability in every roll.
Slitting with Tight Tolerances
The foundation of narrow-width converting is precision slitting. PHC provides slitting services that deliver PET rolls with clean edges, exact widths, and consistent tolerances.
Benefits include:
- Smooth machinability on high-speed lines.
- Reduced waste from uneven edges.
- Improved efficiency across packaging and tape production.
USA converters depend on PHC’s slitting expertise to deliver films that run flawlessly.
Winding & Roll Conditioning
Roll format is just as important as film chemistry. PHC offers winding and rewinding services to adjust roll tension, core sizes, and lengths for compatibility with customer equipment. Properly conditioned rolls ensure films unwind smoothly, avoiding breaks, telescoping, or misfeeds.
For USA manufacturers, winding precision supports higher uptime and consistent production.
High COF / Low Slip PET
Stability matters when running narrow-width films. PHC supplies high COF / low slip PET films that provide better stack control and reduced sliding during converting and packaging.
Applications include:
- Candy and snack wraps.
- Industrial laminates.
- High-speed lines where stability prevents misfeeds.
Converters across the USA use high COF PET to reduce waste and improve machinability.
Adhesive & Silicone-Coated Base Films
For pressure-sensitive tapes and laminates, PET must bond effectively while maintaining dimensional stability. PHC offers adhesive and silicone-coated base films that provide strong adhesion properties and controlled release performance.
These films are ideal for:
- PSA tape systems.
- Industrial laminates.
- Specialty adhesive products.
USA converters rely on coated PET bases to streamline production and improve performance.
