188μm PET Polyester Film
As a PET Polyester Film Manufacturer, Jinlu Film produces this 188μm grade for jobs where insulation has to do more than just insulate. At 24.6 kV, the breakdown voltage is one of the highest in the standard range, but the real story is its 188% MD elongation — the film stretches under stress instead of tearing, which matters in die-cutting and heavy assembly. It is the right pick when a thick, tough, high-voltage layer is needed.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage of 188μm PET polyester film?
24.6 kV, as listed in the specifications above.
What does 188% MD elongation mean?
It is how far the film stretches in the machine direction before it breaks. The film stretches under stress instead of tearing, which matters in die-cutting and heavy assembly.
When should I choose 188μm?
When a thick, tough, high-voltage layer is needed.
