50 metre DTF transfer roll at a glance
A 50 metre DTF transfer roll from Wise DTF Prints is 50 metres of 58cm wide film printed continuously with your artwork and supplied ready to press, for £447.50 (£8.95 per metre). It suits a print shop or brand that presses garments every working day and wants a month of transfers in one delivery at a lower price per metre than the 25 metre roll. Upload your designs or a nested layout, and we print the full length in our Putney, London workshop.

The price per metre falls as the roll gets longer, from £9.75 on 25 metres to £7.95 on 100 metres. Each metre is 58cm x 100cm of printable space, so a 50 metre roll holds roughly 2,000 chest prints at 20cm x 10cm or 400 full back prints at 28cm x 35cm. If you need fewer than 25 metres, order a 1 metre gang sheet per metre instead.
Who orders a 50 metre roll?
- Print shops with steady daily orders across several customers
- Brands with a core range of 10 to 20 designs reordered every month
- Workwear and uniform suppliers printing logos for a client base
- Schools, clubs and leisure centres kitting out a whole season
How to set up artwork for a roll
- Upload each design separately in the builder with its print size and quantity, and we nest them across the roll, or upload your own nested file in 58cm x 100cm sections (6850 x 11811 pixels at 300 DPI each).
- Keep 5mm between designs and 1cm from the film edge. Do not mirror artwork.
- Group designs by garment colour so you can cut a section for each pressing job.
- Repeat designs are printed identically along the roll, so one file and a quantity is all we need for a single-design run.
How to press transfers from a roll
- Cut the section you need from the roll with scissors or a rotary cutter; store the rest flat or loosely rolled, print side out, away from sunlight.
- Pre-press the garment for 3 to 5 seconds, then press the transfer at 160 to 170°C for 10 to 15 seconds with medium pressure.
- Let the film cool completely and peel it away slowly (cold peel).
- Cover with parchment paper and press again for 5 to 10 seconds. Wait 24 hours before the first wash.
