Ulano EZ-Film Capillary Film | Consistent, High-Quality Stencils

Ulano EZ-Film is a premium capillary emulsion film for T-shirt and garment printing, offering significant savings in labor and production time compared to liquid emulsion. Eliminate the need for scoop coaters or manual application by applying the pre-coated film to a wet screen for quick, mess-free stencil creation. With factory-controlled emulsion thickness, EZ-Film ensures consistent exposure times and uniform emulsion-over-mesh (EOM) thickness for predictable ink deposits with plastisol and water-based inks.

Benefits: Produces perfect stencils quickly and consistently, with no mess or waste. Consistent stencil thickness ensures high-quality prints and controlled ink deposits, making it ideal for shops seeking efficiency and precision.

Choosing the Right Thickness: EZ-Film is available in 50-micron and 30-micron thicknesses. Select based on mesh count, print run size, and desired ink deposit. Higher micron counts create thicker stencils, similar to applying multiple coats of liquid emulsion.

EZ-Film-50 (50 microns): Recommended for mesh counts of 86–196 threads per inch (33–77 threads/cm). Ideal for basic and athletic printing, this fast-exposing, pure photopolymer (SBQ) textile capillary film is coated on 300-gauge matte polyester. It can be adhered with plain water or direct emulsion in direct/indirect mode. Suitable for short-run water-based ink printing. Most popular.

EZ-Film-30 (30 microns): Ideal for mesh counts of 230–419 threads per inch (90–165 threads/cm). Designed for plastisol ink and non-aggressive solvent-based inks with mild wash-up solvents. Note: Screen openers and aggressive solvents may complicate reclamation. Thinner stencils deposit less ink.

Key Features:

High-Contrast Orange Color: Reduces halation for improved resolution, allows use of cost-effective white mesh, and simplifies stencil inspection and see-through registration.
Fast Processing and Exposure: Dries faster than liquid emulsion, supports rapid stencil turnaround, and reduces labor and production time.
User-Friendly: Easier to apply than liquid emulsion, with wide processing and exposure latitude across various exposure units, ensuring perfect stencils every time.
Pre-Coated Stencils: Provides consistent stencil thickness, controls ink deposit, and reduces labor in screen preparation.
Wet Processing: Minimizes pinholes due to uniform emulsion application and speeds up production.
Convenient Pre-Cut Sheets: Available in 15” x 17” (≈38 x 43 cm) and 17” x 24” (≈43 x 60.9 cm), packaged 50 per box.

Note: 17” x 24” sheets are sold in quantities of 4. Contact Lawson at 314-382-9300 to order.
