Prescale™ Pressure Indicating Film Specifications

There are two types of Prescale™ film: two-sheet and mono-sheet.

Two-sheet Prescale Film (Extreme Low pressure through Low pressure):
Composed of two polyester bases, A-Film and C-Film. A-Film is coated with a micro-encapsulated color-forming material, and a C-Film, which is coated with a color-developing material. The A-Film and C-Film must be positioned with the coated sides facing each other.

Two Sheet

Mono-sheet Prescale Film (Medium through Super High pressure): The color-developing material is coated on a polyester base, with the micro-encapsulated color-forming material layered on top.
