Description

PTFE Non-stick Heat Conductive Pads | 9″ x 5″

Essentialware’s industrial strength Green Silicone Rubber Heat Conductive Pads are used to help evenly distribute pressure and protect materials in the sublimation process. Make sure to adjust pressure for pad and material thickness. Recommended max temperature is 400°F. Sublimation times vary depending on pressure, time, temp, and recommended settings from the manufacturers of the dye sub ink, tiles, porcelain, and other materials.

Common Applications 

• Heat sublimation onto curved, delicate, or otherwise irregular surfaces such as porcelain, glass, stone tile, glass cutting boards, metal, wood

Tips for a Better Transfer

1. Remember to adjust your heat press pressure to accommodate for the pad and material you’re transferring to

2. Begin every press with a fresh transfer sheet

3. Tape down your image so you don’t get a duplicate image, known as ghosting

4. Remove the transfer in one quick, fluid motion
