Among Lumirror grades, five part numbers come up again and again in buyer requests: S10 for general use, T60 for clarity, H10 for motor insulation, E20 for white, and X30 for black
Browse the full range and the list of part numbers feels endless. Ask people who buy the film, and the same few keep coming back. Here are five popular Toray Lumirror PET Film models, with one plain sentence on what each is for and the numbers that back it up.
S10: The General-Purpose Standard
Toray Lumirror S10 PET Film is described as a standard polyester film for various applications, with good electrical properties and good dimensional and thermal stability. It comes in ten thicknesses, from 12 to 350 um, and its datasheet lists electrical insulation, flexible print circuits, membrane switches, mold release, adhesive tape, and spiral tube among its uses. Breakdown voltage rises with thickness, from about 4.1 kV at 12 um to about 31.2 kV at 350 um, and the UL746B rating is 105°C for both electrical and mechanical properties. Choose it when you want a dependable, versatile film and the range of thicknesses matters.
T60: When You Need to See Through It
Toray Lumirror T60 PET Film is the high transparent film, offered from 25 to 250 um. Its datasheet shows haze of about 0.6 to 3.0 percent, rising with thickness, and light transmittance of roughly 84 to 87 percent at 550 nm. It is listed for the base of graphic arts layout, membrane switches, labels, and OHP sheets. Choose it when the film has to be clear and flat, and compare haze at the same thickness.
H10: The Motor Insulation Film
Toray Lumirror H10 PET Film is a hazy, plain polyester film with excellent handling and electrical properties, described as a standard base for motor insulation. The available thickness runs from 75 to 500 um, with a 50 um column also in the table, and breakdown voltage climbs from about 11.5 kV at 50 um to about 39.6 kV in the thickest grade. The datasheet lists motor slot liner and wedge as examples, with good stiffness for insertion into a motor. Choose it when insulation strength and stiffness matter more than clarity.
E20: The Opaque White Film
Toray Lumirror E20 White PET Film is a standard pigment filled white film with excellent opacity and color stability, offered from 50 to 250 um, with a 38 um column also in the table. Optical density, which shows how much light the film blocks, rises from about 0.76 at 38 um to about 1.93 at 250 um, while the whiteness index stays steady at about 90 to 90.9 percent. The datasheet lists cards, reflection sheets for X-ray film, labels, and whiteboards. Choose it when you need a consistent white, opaque base, and pick the thickness by how much light blocking you need.
X30: The Black Film
Toray Lumirror X30 PET Film is a pigment filled black film with good pigment distribution, from 23 to 250 um. Optical density rises from about 0.95 at 23 um to about 4.10 at 125 um and above 4 in the thickest grades. The listed uses are wire insulation and cable tape (for distinguishing lines), drum head, decoration, adhesive tape, and die cut electrical insulation. Choose it when color and light blocking are the point.
How the Five Differ at a Glance
- Clarity: T60 is the clear one, S10 is standard, H10 is hazy, E20 is white and opaque, and X30 is black.
- Insulation: S10 and H10 are the ones with breakdown voltage data, and H10 reaches higher values in the thick grades.
- Thickness range: S10 has the widest choice, from 12 to 350 um, and H10 reaches 500 um.
- Thermal rating: S10, T60, and H10 each list a UL746B RTI of 105°C.
- Typical use: S10 for general converting and insulation, T60 for printing and optical sheets, H10 for motor slot liners and wedges, E20 for cards, labels, and whiteboards, and X30 for black cable tape and decoration.
To see where these five sit among all the others, the Lumirror grades map shows the whole family, and the safety data sheet guide covers handling.
What This Summary Does Not Say
- It condenses each grade to a few points. The datasheet values are typical data under specific test conditions and are not limiting specifications, as the datasheets themselves note.
- Some figures are approximate ranges. Please check the official datasheets, and the linked guides, for exact values at your thickness.
- Suitability depends on your own process, so test samples before an order.
