Brand: STRONG
SKU: 00031
Rating: 4.9 (66 reviews)

SF-DFT Eco Friendly CTP Plate is a hard hardness digital printing plate featuring Strong's revolutionary built-in flat top dot technology. It provides the convenience of flat top dots right out of the box, with no additional platemaking steps or equipment required to achieve flat top dots. SF-DFT offers near 1:1 mask-to-plate imaging capability, eliminating the need for concave and convex curves, which will help printers expand the available color gamut and print smaller dots. It is a durable and very low tack plate, ideal for long-running and clean print jobs.
