Industrial Overlays & Composites USA | Industrial PET Films USA for Strength & Performance
Industrial markets—from automotive and construction to electronics and specialty manufacturing—demand films that perform under stress, bond reliably, and integrate seamlessly into composite structures. Polyester (PET) films are the foundation of many overlays and laminates thanks to their strength, dimensional stability, and compatibility with adhesives and coatings.
At Pilcher Hamilton Corporation (PHC), we supply PET films designed specifically for industrial overlays and composite applications. Our lineup includes general-purpose industrial PET for durable base layers, adhesive and silicone-coated base films for functional laminations, and silicone-coated release films for liner applications. With precision die-cutting services and USA-based support, PHC helps manufacturers produce overlays and composites that meet demanding performance standards.
General-Purpose PET for Industrial Strength
Versatility is key in industrial composites, and PHC’s general-purpose industrial PET is one of the most reliable substrates available. Its strength, heat resistance, and dimensional stability make it ideal for:
- Laminate structures in construction materials.
- Protective overlays for printed graphics.
- Electrical and automotive insulation components.
USA converters choose general-purpose PET as a foundational material for overlays that require toughness and durability.
Adhesive & Silicone-Coated Base Films
For laminations and composite assemblies, PET films must be engineered to bond effectively. PHC provides adhesive and silicone-coated base films that enhance adhesion while maintaining stability. These films are designed for applications such as:
- Pressure-sensitive laminates.
- Protective coverings.
- Composite layering in industrial products.
By supplying pre-coated PET films, PHC helps USA manufacturers streamline production while achieving reliable composite performance.
Silicone-Coated Release Films
Release liners are essential in composite manufacturing, particularly for adhesive-backed structures. PHC’s silicone-coated release films provide controlled release values, ensuring adhesives cure and bond correctly without sticking prematurely.
Applications include:
- Industrial tapes.
- Automotive gaskets.
- Composite laminations requiring precise release performance.
With silicone-coated PET liners, USA converters gain reliability and consistency in complex overlay and composite production.
Die-Cutting for Precision Parts
Industrial overlays and composites often require intricate shapes and exact dimensions. PHC offers advanced die-cutting services that convert PET films into finished parts ready for assembly.
Benefits include:
- Repeatable accuracy for high-volume runs.
- Reduced waste compared to manual cutting.
- Faster integration into industrial applications.
USA manufacturers trust PHC to supply not only the raw film but also finished, die-cut components that meet tight tolerances.
