ORJ Sublimation License Plate Blanks 6x12 in (10-Pack) White Aluminum, 0.65mm with 4 Pre-Drilled Holes

These are 10 white aluminum sublimation-ready license plate blanks (6" x 12", 0.65mm) designed for durable, vivid heat-transfer images.

ORJ’s set of ten metal license plate blanks provides a consistent, corrosion-resistant canvas for custom sublimation prints. Each plate arrives with a protective film that must be removed before heat transfer; they include four pre-drilled mounting holes for quick attachment to vehicles, walls, bikes, mailboxes, or display frames. The aluminum construction balances rigidity with light weight so plates are less likely to warp and handle outdoor exposure.

How do I prepare these plates for sublimation printing?

Preparation is straightforward: peel the protective coating off each plate, position your transfer paper, and follow time and temperature guidance for best results. Proper pre-press alignment and clean surfaces prevent ghosting and ensure sharp colors.

• Remove protective film before printing to expose the sublimation surface
• Use 350–400°F (176–204°C) for 80–120 seconds for optimal transfer
• Apply even pressure and avoid shifting the transfer during pressing
• Cool before removing paper to prevent smudging or image loss

What makes these plates suitable for outdoor use and long-term display?

Made from lightweight aluminum, these plates resist rust and corrosion better than many other materials, and their 0.65mm thickness provides structural stability without excessive weight. The metal substrate accepts sublimation inks that embed into the coating for durable coloration when processed correctly.

• Aluminum construction offers water and rust resistance
• 0.65mm thickness reduces bending while remaining light
• Four pre-drilled holes simplify mounting and alignment
• Coating formulated for sublimation helps lock in vibrant prints

Which tools and settings work best with these blanks?

A standard heat press for hard substrates or an oven press works well; ensure even heat distribution and stable pressure. Use quality sublimation paper and inks, and test with a single plate to fine-tune timing and temperature for your equipment.

• Recommended press temperatures: 350–400°F (176–204°C)
• Suggested dwell: 80–120 seconds depending on press type
• Use firm, even pressure across the entire plate surface
• Quality sublimation ink and paper improve color fidelity and durability

How do I install or display a finished plate?

Finished plates mount easily using the four pre-drilled holes; choose stainless or weatherproof hardware for exterior displays. They also work well in frames, on display stands, or as decorative indoor signs and gifts.

• Use screws or bolts through the pre-cut holes for secure mounting
• Pair with rubber or plastic spacers to prevent metal-on-metal contact
• For vehicle use, follow local regulations for license plate display
• Great for personalized gifts, shop signs, or event giveaways
