Stat-X™ Anti-Static Silicone Pads – Eliminate Static for Superior Pad Printing Results

Static energy is the leading cause of poor-quality results in pad printing, often affecting print clarity and precision. Standard silicone pads can quickly accumulate static energy during production, attracting dust particles and debris that compromise print sharpness and edge definition. This static buildup can also cause “spider webbing”, where web-like ink trails appear around artwork edges, ruining the print's quality.

Even more critically, static-charged pads pose a risk to sensitive electronics, potentially causing static discharge that leads to circuit failures during printing. Deco Technology Group's Stat-X™ silicone pads solve these challenges with their innovative anti-static formulation. Developed using conductive silicone polymers and fillers, Stat-X™ pads are designed to prevent static buildup entirely.

Key Benefits of Stat-X™ Silicone Pads:
  • Eliminates Static Energy: No dust or debris collects on the pad surface, ensuring sharp, clean prints.
  • Prevents Static Discharge: Safe for use on sensitive electronics, reducing the risk of circuit damage.
  • Superior Print Quality: Achieve precise, fine-line detail without static interference or spider webbing.

Available in 65 to 40 Shore A (00 scale) durometer, Stat-X™ silicone pads are perfect for achieving consistent, professional-quality results across various substrates and applications.

Choose Stat-X™ anti-static silicone pads for the ultimate in pad printing performance, backed by Deco Technology Group’s expertise in high-quality printing solutions. Contact us today to learn more about how Stat-X™ silicone technology can revolutionize your printing process.
