Epson SC-F3070 Platen Grip Pad Small
Genuine Epson small platen grip pad designed to hold garments securely in position during direct-to-garment printing while enabling efficient hoop-free garment loading.
Characteristics
The Epson SC-F3070 Small Platen Grip Pad is a genuine Epson accessory designed to provide a secure gripping surface for garments during direct-to-garment printing. Installed over the compatible small platen, the grip pad helps prevent garments from shifting or moving while they are being loaded and printed.
The gripping surface allows garments to be positioned directly onto the platen without requiring a traditional platen frame or hoop. This hoop-free workflow can simplify garment loading and make it easier for operators to position shirts and other printable items quickly and consistently.
Keeping the garment stable is especially important during DTG printing. Movement, wrinkles, or improper positioning can affect image placement and print quality. The grip pad helps keep the printable area smooth and securely positioned on the platen throughout the printing process.
The small configuration is designed for use with the Epson 10" x 12" small garment platen, making it useful for smaller garments and print areas where the standard medium or large platen may be unnecessary.
The smaller working area is particularly useful for youth garments, smaller shirts, compact graphics, left-chest designs, and other applications where more precise garment positioning is beneficial.
As a genuine Epson accessory, the Small Platen Grip Pad is designed for proper fit and reliable performance with compatible Epson SureColor direct-to-garment equipment.
