Key Features
Characterize surface pressure between any two mating, touching, or impacting surfaces. The dimensions of this film are 10 in. x 12.2 in.
Prescale provides a surface pressure “map” that illuminates actual pressure magnitude (in precise PSI or kg/cm^2) and distribution between your two surfaces. The pressure range of this film is 7.2 - 28 PSI (0.5 - 1.97 kg/cm²).
Prescale reveals the contact surface pressure by virtue of a color change. This color change is instantaneous (less than a millisecond) and permanent
Prescale comes on a roll, is super thin, and can easily be cut from the supplied roll with scissor or laser to your precise application requirement
Included at no cost is the revised and updated Best Practices Guide to Handling and Applying Fujifilm Prescale . This booklet offers expert advice on storage, film preparation, use, and interpretation of results.
All films guaranteed to have 18 months of shelf life available.

Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- Accurately characterizes surface pressure between two mating, touching, or impacting surfaces.
- Provides a clear surface pressure "map" that visually indicates both magnitude and distribution of pressure.
- Reveals precise pressure magnitude in PSI or kg/cm², offering quantitative data for analysis.
- Features an instantaneous (less than a millisecond) and permanent color change upon contact, ensuring clear results.
- Super thin and comes on a roll, allowing for easy cutting with scissors or laser to fit specific application requirements.
- Includes a revised and updated "Best Practices Guide" for handling and applying, offering expert advice for optimal use.
- Guaranteed to have an 18-month shelf life available, providing ample time for usage from purchase.
👎 Cons
- The film has a specific pressure range of 7.2 - 28 PSI, limiting its application to scenarios within this low-pressure spectrum.
- The dimensions of 10 in. x 12.2 in. might not be suitable for all applications, potentially requiring multiple pieces or cutting for larger surfaces.
- The color change mechanism is permanent, meaning a single piece of film can only be used once for a pressure measurement.
- Interpretation of the color change requires reference to the provided guide or established charts to accurately convert color intensity to pressure values.
- While easy to cut, precise application and removal might require careful handling to avoid wrinkling or damage that could affect results.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary use of Fujifilm Prescale Extreme Low Pressure Mapping Film?
It is used to characterize surface pressure, showing both magnitude and distribution, between any two mating, touching, or impacting surfaces.
What is the pressure range this film can measure?
This specific film is designed for an extreme low-pressure range of 7.2 - 28 PSI (0.5 - 1.97 kg/cm²).
How quickly does the film react to pressure?
The film reveals contact surface pressure by virtue of an instantaneous color change, occurring in less than a millisecond.
Can the film be reused after a pressure application?
No, the color change induced by pressure is permanent, meaning each piece of film can only be used once for a measurement.
What are the dimensions of the film provided?
The dimensions of this film are 10 inches by 12.2 inches, and it comes on a roll for easy cutting.
Is there any guidance provided on how to use the film?
Yes, the product includes a "Best Practices Guide to Handling and Applying Fujifilm Prescale" offering expert advice on storage, preparation, use, and interpretation of results.
What is the guaranteed shelf life of the Prescale film?
All films are guaranteed to have 18 months of shelf life available from the time of purchase.
