________________________________________________________________________________________________
TransferRite Ultra 1310 is a professional-grade, clear application tape engineered for sign shops, vinyl installers, decal manufacturers, and graphics professionals. The transparent film makes it easy to accurately position lettering, decals, layered graphics, and multi-color overlays before installation.
The specially formulated rubber-based adhesive provides reliable pickup of intermediate vinyl while also adhering to exposed release liner. This helps the masked graphic remain flat during handling, storage, and transportation, reducing the risk of tunneling, edge curl, and graphic movement.
TransferRite Ultra 1310 features a low-static polypropylene film that is easy to handle during application. It removes cleanly from challenging substrates such as corrugated plastic and banner material, making it a versatile transfer tape for everyday sign and graphics production.
The clear construction is particularly useful for ready-to-apply graphics, retail decals, small lettering, registration-sensitive installations, and multi-layer vinyl applications. The manufacturer recommends it for decals or lettering measuring less than 12 inches in one dimension, as well as multi-color overlays.
