Characteristics
The Nortech 20" x 28" 156 Yellow Mesh Aluminum Frame is a versatile screen printing solution designed for decorators who require dependable print quality, reliable tension retention, and long-lasting performance. Constructed from lightweight yet durable aluminum, this frame provides excellent stability and durability for both manual and automatic printing environments.
The 156 yellow mesh offers an ideal balance between ink coverage and image detail, making it one of the most commonly used mesh counts for general-purpose screen printing. The yellow mesh color helps reduce light scatter during exposure, allowing for sharper stencil edges and improved detail reproduction, particularly on fine text, halftones, and detailed artwork.
