Black PETG Plastic Sheet for Music Disc

ONE PLASTIC's Black PETG Plastic Sheet for Music Disc is purpose-engineered for vinyl record blank production and lathe cutting applications. Made from high-quality PETG resin, this sheet delivers the softness, flatness, and consistency that record cutting professionals demand — whether you are producing custom dubplates, limited-edition lathe-cut records, or short-run releases for indie labels. The solid black color runs through the full thickness of the material, producing uniform black swarf and eliminating the need for sandwich-construction blanks.

Comprehensive Specifications

Why PETG Is the Preferred Material for Music Disc

Compared to traditional PVC or polycarbonate, PETG is softer and easier to cut, enabling your diamond or sapphire stylus to produce cleaner grooves with significantly lower surface noise. Here's what makes our Black PETG Sheet stand out for music disc production:

• Low Noise Floor — The softness of PETG allows precise groove cutting without the micro-fracturing common in harder plastics, resulting in quieter playback.

• Diamond & Sapphire Stylus Friendly — Compatible with both diamond cutting and sapphire embossing styli, extending stylus life while maintaining groove accuracy.

• Excellent Flatness — Extruded under strict quality control on our advanced PET plastic extrusion lines, our sheets maintain the flatness critical for consistent lathe cutting.

• Solid Black Through-and-Through — No sandwich construction needed. Black swarf keeps your workspace clean and your process efficient.

• Thermal Stability to 75°C — No heat lamps required. Cut at normal room temperature (21–25°C) with excellent results.

• Fully Recyclable — A more sustainable choice than traditional PVC-based record materials.

Application Scenarios

Lathe-Cut Vinyl Record ProductionThe primary application for black PETG sheets worldwide. Record cutting studios use our material on professional lathes (Vinylrecorder T560, Presto, Rek-O-Kut) to produce custom one-off or short-run vinyl records. The material cuts cleanly with minimal surface noise — ideal for limited edition releases, artist merchandise, and collector's items.

Dubplate Cutting for DJs & Sound SystemsIn dancehall, drum & bass, and electronic music culture, dubplates are exclusive one-off discs for live performance. Black PETG is the preferred substrate for diamond-cut dubplates because of its groove clarity, durability during repeated playback, and the authentic vinyl-record appearance.

Independent Label Short RunsFor indie labels releasing 1–100 copies, traditional vinyl pressing is often not viable. Lathe-cut PETG records offer a cost-effective, on-demand alternative in standard 7", 10", or 12" formats.

Custom Gift & Promotional RecordsPersonalized vinyl records are popular gifts and promotional tools — from wedding songs to brand jingles. Black PETG blanks provide a premium substrate that looks and feels like a traditional vinyl record.

Picture Disc ProductionOur 1 mm semi-flexi PETG sheets are ideal for picture discs. Sandwich a printed image between two thin PETG layers with spray adhesive to create visually stunning, fully playable collector's discs.

PETG vs. Other Record Blank Materials

FAQ

Q: What thickness is best for vinyl record blanks?

A: 0.7 mm (.030") to 2.0 mm (.078") are most popular. Thinner sheets suit flexi-discs and picture discs; 1.5–2.0 mm provides rigidity closest to a traditionally pressed record.

Q: Can I get pre-cut round blanks instead of full sheets?

A: Yes. We offer CNC and laser cutting services to supply 7", 10", and 12" disc blanks with precision center holes, ready for your lathe.

Q: Is this compatible with the Vinylrecorder T560?

A: Absolutely. Our black PETG sheet is diamond-friendly and works excellently on all major lathe systems including T560, Presto, and Rek-O-Kut cutters.

Q: What is the MOQ?

A: 500 kgs for sheet rolls. For pre-cut blanks, contact us to discuss — we are flexible for both small and large orders.
