Questions & Answers

Where can I buy or pick up Hotronix Heat Press Platen Covers 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.

What is the difference between an upper and a lower platen cover?

A lower platen cover (often called a Quick Slip protector) fits over the bottom silicone pad to let shirts slide on and off smoothly for faster threading. An upper platen cover is designed to wrap around the top heating element, protecting the bare metal surface from getting clogged with melted vinyl, stray inks, or adhesive residues, eliminating the need for separate cover sheets.

What specific heat press models are these platen covers compatible with?

These covers feature a form-fitting design built to accommodate the industry's top machines. They offer seamless compatibility with Stahls' Hotronix and MAXX heat presses, including popular commercial models like the Hotronix Fusion IQ, the Hotronix Air Fusion IQ, and standard Hotronix Auto Clam units.

What sizes and configurations can I choose from?

To accommodate specialized graphics and various production layouts, options include compact sizes like 6" x 10" and 11" x 15", standard full-size setups like 16" x 16" and 16" x 20", as well as dedicated Silicone Upper Platen Covers and round options like the 7" Round Cover to completely enclose your workspace configuration.

How do you clean and maintain these non-stick protectors?

Maintenance is remarkably quick and simple. If adhesive residue, sublimation inks, or plastisol inks spill onto the cover during production, you do not need harsh chemical solvents. Simply allow the press to cool down safely and wipe the cover clean with a damp cloth to completely restore its pristine condition.

Can I finance my heat press upgrades and accessories through Lawson?

Yes! If you are batch-ordering protective covers, custom quick-change platens, or large-format digital print machinery, commercial financing options are available to protect your shop's liquid cash flow. You can apply quickly and securely on our dedicated Lawson financing page.

  • DESCRIPTION

Looking to safeguard your machinery investment while accelerating your custom apparel workflow? Hotronix Heat Press Platen Covers by Stahls' Hotronix are industrial-grade protective shields engineered to optimize your pressing environment. Available for both upper and lower platens across a comprehensive range of sizes—including 6" x 10", 11" x 15", 16" x 16", and 16" x 20"—these durable covers provide an essential defensive layer for your shop's everyday production.

The core benefit of the Hotronix Platen Covers is their high-quality, non-stick surface. When applied as a lower cover, they allow garments to slide on and off the press effortlessly, reducing operator fatigue and significantly increasing hourly production speeds. When utilized as an upper cover, they protect the heat element from accidental ink, adhesive, or vinyl buildup. Built to handle commercial temperatures up to 400°F, these wrappers shield your platens from stray plastisol ink, sublimation dye bleed-through, and wet DTF transfer residues. Instead of scrubbing away at bare metal or replacing scorched silicone pads, you can simply wipe these non-stick wraps clean to maintain a pristine, retail-ready workspace.

Whether you run a high-volume apparel printing facility or a mobile live-printing pop-up, these easy-to-clean covers ensure consistent pressure distribution and long-term machine longevity.
