Tension Quik Adjustable Screen Stretcher

Tension Quik Adjustable Screen Stretcher | Easy to Use

The Diamond Chase Tension-Quik™ is an easy-to-use adjustable screen stretching system, offering the most cost-effective way to achieve high tension levels. Four independent channels link together, allowing size adjustments in both directions. Each channel encloses a tension roller that ratchets clockwise to tension the mesh. The rollers feature a fabric-locking system to securely capture the mesh. Adjustable arms fit around your stretch-and-glue frame. To use, insert the mesh into the four rollers in the adjustable channels, tighten with the supplied tool, and glue it to your frame.

The frame channels are extruded in a standard-strength profile, with special-order heavy-duty and jumbo profiles available. The standard profile is recommended for most tensioning applications. The heavy-duty profile is recommended only for welded stretchers and welded frames over 60 inches. The jumbo profile is recommended for systems over 96 inches and is manufactured only as an adjustable stretcher.

The Keystone Nylon system (special order) uses a single tapered nylon rod that slides into the roller through the end of the frame channel. This system is ideal for large stretchers due to its pretensioning capability and easy corner-softening ability for all frame sizes. One locking rod handles most mesh counts, including wire meshes. An undersized black Keystone rod is available for very coarse meshes.

How to Order the Right Size

The outer dimension of your frame will match the inner dimension of the Tension Quik stretcher in inches. Top loading is assumed unless specified otherwise. Specify the Keystone system if desired.
