GSF 23" x 31" 158 Yellow Mesh Alum Frame W/ MHM Pins
Premium aluminum screen printing frame featuring 158 yellow mesh and welded MHM registration pins for excellent detail reproduction, reliable ink control, and accurate registration.
Characteristics
The GSF 23" x 31" 158 Yellow Mesh Aluminum Frame W/ MHM Pins is designed for screen printers seeking dependable print quality, consistent stencil performance, and efficient production workflows.
Built with durable aluminum construction and professionally stretched 158 yellow mesh, this frame delivers an excellent balance of ink deposit and image detail for a wide variety of screen printing applications.
The 158 yellow mesh is one of the most versatile mesh counts used in screen printing, offering strong detail reproduction while maintaining sufficient ink coverage for spot colors, halftones, and general-purpose printing. The yellow mesh helps reduce light scatter during exposure, improving edge definition and stencil sharpness for cleaner image reproduction.
Equipped with welded MHM registration pins, this frame integrates seamlessly into MHM registration systems, helping reduce setup times and improve multicolor registration accuracy. The rugged aluminum frame construction resists warping and maintains mesh tension over time, making it a reliable choice for both manual and automatic printing operations.
