Materials and consumables, specified honestly
Reference records for the materials production work consumes — vinyl, thread, inks, films and powders. Application settings are reproduced as manufacturer guidance with their stated conditions, never as universal facts.
How these records are maintained
- Every specification is traced to a numbered source — official manufacturer documentation first.
- Manufacturer-stated figures are labelled as manufacturer figures, never as independent measurements.
- Fields we could not verify stay marked unverified rather than being guessed.
- Discontinued products are labelled; records show when they were last verified against their sources.
- Specifications change — confirm anything critical with the manufacturer before purchasing. Materials & consumables records are reference material, not buying advice, and damantra has not independently tested these products.
Material
Siser EasyWeed
Siser's flagship polyurethane heat-transfer vinyl: 90-micron PU film applied at 150 °C for 10–15 seconds with a hot-or-cold peel — application settings reproduced from Siser's own page and reference chart, as guidance, not universal fact.
Material
ORACAL 651 Intermediate Cal
ORAFOL's workhorse calendered sign vinyl: 2.5-mil PVC with a clear permanent solvent adhesive and up to six years' rated outdoor durability — specified from ORAFOL's product page and the May 2026 technical data sheet, including a colour-count discrepancy ORAFOL's own pages disagree on.
Material
Madeira Classic Rayon No. 40
Madeira's standard viscose embroidery thread: 100 % filament viscose in count 135 dtex × 2, 422 colours, OEKO-TEX class I certified — specified from Madeira's official range page and the November 2023 data sheet, fastness table included.
Material
Sawgrass SubliJet UHD
Sawgrass's dye-sublimation ink for its SG500 and SG1000 desktop printers — recorded from Sawgrass's official pages, with cartridge capacity left unverified because it appears only in product imagery, and the warranty small print noted.
Material
Color Prime Quick Glide DTF Film
Color Prime's instant-peel DTF transfer film: 83 µm with a matte print side, documented on the brand's own page and on its retail partner DTF Station's listing — whose application guidance differs slightly and is recorded here side by side.
