Overview
The
Imprint Technologies F101-1, part number MW40025, is a white hot stamp foil supplied on a 2-1/2-inch-wide by 600-foot roll. Its pigment-based transfer layer produces durable, low-gloss markings with strong contrast, making it a practical choice for industrial identification, production coding, packaging, and labeling.White2-1/2" Wide600 ft
F101-1 is especially effective on polyethylene bags and is also designed for compatible ABS, polystyrene, and flexible or rigid PVC surfaces. When applied with a heated metal die, the foil transfers the desired characters or graphics directly to the substrate without liquid ink, supporting clean and long-lasting wire, cable, product, and package identification.
🏷️ High-Contrast Industrial Identification
White Pigment Transfer: Creates visible markings on dark or colored substrates.
Low-Gloss Finish: Produces a restrained printed appearance for labels, packaging, cable jackets, and manufactured products.
Ink-Free Process: Transfers pigment through heat, pressure, and a metal die rather than liquid ink.
Key Features
- 2-1/2" roll width: supports compatible stamping equipment and wider print areas
- 600-foot roll length: provides material for repeated production runs
- Strong polyethylene adhesion: well suited for printing on polyethylene bags
- Multiple plastic substrates: suitable for compatible ABS, polyethylene, polystyrene, and PVC
- Metal-die application: transfers text, codes, or graphics under controlled heat and pressure
- 250–300°F die-face range: provides the specified starting temperature window for stamping
✅ Why Choose F101-1 White Hot Stamp Foil?
F101-1 combines clear white contrast with dependable adhesion across several common industrial plastics. Its ink-free hot stamping process is useful when production lines need repeatable wire markings, date codes, package identification, or product graphics without drying time or liquid-ink handling.
Applications
The F101-1 foil supports industrial printing and identification processes such as:
- Wire and cable insulation marking
- Polyethylene bag printing
- Industrial packaging and labeling
- Pencil imprinting
- Second-surface automotive printing
- Code dating and production identification
⚠️ Test Before Full Production
The 250–300°F specification applies at the die face. Final temperature, pressure, and dwell time can vary with the stamping equipment, die design, print area, line speed, and substrate.
Test the complete process on the actual production material to confirm adhesion, legibility, and surface compatibility before running finished parts.
⚙️ Process Optimization
Start near the lower end of the specified temperature range and adjust one variable at a time. Controlled changes to heat, pressure, and dwell make it easier to identify the settings that produce complete transfer without distorting the substrate.
