Hangar 9 UltraCote Safety Yellow RC Aircraft Covering 2-Metre Roll - HANU891

The Hangar 9 UltraCote Safety Yellow (HANU891) is a polyester film covering designed for building and recovering RC aircraft, supplied in a 2-metre roll measuring 60 cm wide. UltraCote is widely used by RC plane builders for its reliable adhesion to wood and its ability to shrink tightly around compound curves, wingtips, and trailing edges. This opaque safety yellow finish gives strong visual contrast in the air, making it a popular choice for trainers, sport planes, and scale models where visibility matters.

Key Features

• Lightweight polyester film at 0.30 oz per sq ft, keeping added weight to a minimum on finished models.
• Multi temperature-controlled adhesive system allows controlled bonding and repositioning before final heat sealing — adhesion to wood begins at 200–220°F, shrinkage onset at 300°F, and maximum shrinkage at 350°F.
• Patented polymerising process permanently fuses the colour into the film, eliminating the risk of colour-layer separation over time.
• Fuel-proof to glow fuel, petrol, and smoke oil, as well as waterproof — suitable for both electric and fuel-powered RC aircraft.
• Shrinks and stretches to follow tight contours, making it suitable for curved wing panels and complex fuselage sections.
