BLACK AND WHITE FILM FOR SMOOTH SURFACES.
Polifilm #2520: Heavy-Duty Black & White Surface Protection
The Ultimate Barrier for High-Finish Aluminum & Architectural Metals. Polifilm #2520 is a specialized, co-extruded (COEX) "Black & White" film engineered for maximum durability and environmental resistance. Designed primarily for the aluminum industry, this film offers a unique dual-layer defense: a reflective white outer surface to manage heat and a light-blocking black inner layer to provide total UV opacity.
Whether your materials are sitting on a job site in the high-desert sun or being processed in a high-speed fabrication shop, #2520 ensures the surface remains as perfect as the day it was milled.
Key Technical Features:
UV & Thermal Regulation: The white top layer reflects solar radiation, preventing "heat-soak" that can cause adhesives to bake onto the metal. The black under-layer provides 100% opacity, preventing UV-driven oxidation.
Aggressive Outdoor Durability: Formulated to withstand extended outdoor exposure, making it the ideal choice for architectural panels, window frames, and exterior aluminum extrusions.
Puncture & Abrasion Resistance: The multi-layer COEX construction provides a significantly higher "Dart Drop" rating than standard clear films, protecting against tool scratches and handling dings.
Optimized for Aluminum: Specifically calibrated for the surface energy of aluminum (mill finish, brushed, or painted), ensuring a secure bond that won't lift during transport but peels "clean" without residue.
The Industrial Applications Advantage:
We stock the #2520 in the large-format widths required by the Northwest’s aluminum and glazing industries.
Master Roll Widths: Available and in-stock in 36", 48", and 60" widths.
Custom Sizing: We provide precision-slit rolls to match your specific extrusion or sheet requirements.
Regional Reliability: Locally stocked in the PNW to ensure you have the heavy-duty protection you need, right when you need it.
Primary Applications:
Aluminum Sheet & Coil: The industry standard for high-finish aluminum protection.
Architectural Glazing: Protection for storefront systems and curtain walls during transit and installation.
Composite Panels: Ideal for ACM (Aluminum Composite Material) used in modern construction.
