Questions & Answers

Where can I buy or pick up the Geo. Knight DKA-35BHT Bottom Heat Attachment locally?

You can securely place your order online and choose convenient local pickup at either the Lawson Screen & Digital Products corporate headquarters in St. Louis, MO (Penrose Street) or our Atlanta area branch in Marietta, GA (Cobb Industrial Drive). Local pickup can also be coordinated through our satellite offices in Phoenix, Orlando, and Des Moines.

Which heat press models are compatible with this DKA-35BHT attachment?

This specific bottom-heat attachment is built exclusively for the Digital Knight series cap presses utilizing the All-Thread™ quick-change lower pedestal system. It is fully compatible with the single-station DK7 Digital Knight Cap Press and the dual-station DK7T Twin Cap Press. (Note: If you own a Digital Combo machine, you will need the DCA-35BHT alternative model).

How does a bottom-heated platen prevent hat scorching and heat rings?

Many structured hats or delicate polyester blends form permanent shininess or discoloration when squeezed against a 350°F top heat platen. By turning down the top platen heat (or leaving it entirely off) and utilizing the DKA-35BHT bottom heating fixture, you push thermal energy directly through the inside crown of the cap. This melts the adhesive glue efficiently from below without pressing hot metal against the face fabric.

Does this fixture utilize its own independent temperature controller?

Yes. The DKA-35BHT functions as a standalone heated unit. It comes built with its own dedicated digital control circuitry box that sits adjacent to your press. This allows operators to perfectly fine-tune the exact top platen heat and bottom pedestal heat independently to fulfill complex multi-layered bonding formulas.

What are the technical electrical and physical specifications of this accessory?

Engineered to be highly efficient and portable on small shop countertops, the attachment features the following specifications:

  • Platen Dimensions: 2.75" x 4.25" (Curved cap face design)
  • Electrical Footprint: 110 Volts / 4 Amps / 450 Watts
  • Physical Profile: 8" D x 8" W x 13" H | Weight: 10 lbs

What kind of manufacturer warranty protection is included?

Built to survive decades of demanding shop customization runs, this factory-grade attachment comes backed by Geo. Knight's premier commercial warranty tier:

  • Lifetime Warranty on the internal heating platen elements.
  • 3-Year Warranty on the external digital control circuitry.
  • 1-Year Warranty on parts, alongside free lifetime technical support.

Can I finance my shop's new equipment and accessories through Lawson?

Yes! If you are bundling this bottom-heat cap fixture with an industrial direct-to-film system, a rolling universal floor stand, or a brand-new twin-station hat press, commercial equipment financing options are available to protect your cash flow. You can apply quickly and securely via our dedicated Lawson financing page.

Are you struggling with scorched fabric, melted synthetic fibers, or ugly press marks when decorating structured headwear? The Geo. Knight DKA-35BHT Cap Bottom Heat Attachment is an industrial-strength, specialized thermal upgrade engineered by Geo. Knight & Co. designed to entirely eliminate top-surface heat damage. Measuring 2.75" x 4.25", this USA-made commercial heating fixture swaps into your existing cap press to heat patches and transfers from the inside out, shielding delicate face fabrics from aggressive direct platen exposure.

The primary production advantage of the Digital Knight DKA-35BHT is its ability to bypass top-surface scorching entirely. When working with thick embroidered appliques, leather patches, dimensional emblem bondings, or sensitive vinyl lettering, heating solely from the top requires extreme temperatures that singe standard materials. This independent, separately controlled bottom-heated pedestal activates your heat-seal adhesives from behind, liquefying the glue line directly through the inner cap mesh. Highly optimized for extending the utility of your DK7 or DK7T hat presses, it easily slides right into the position of your standard All-Thread™ table assembly with a simple, tool-free installation layout.

Operating on a standard 110V line pulling 450 Watts of localized power, this 10 lb solid-aluminum fixture is the ultimate safety upgrade for high-end streetwear brands, corporate custom headwear accounts, and high-volume embroidery houses.
