230 HI-DRO thin thread mesh screens are great for high-end fine detail printing. The yellow color prevents light from reflecting through the threads of the mesh and keeps a sharper image when burning. The thinner thread diameter also allows for both better dot resolution and higher lpi resolution, as the threads have a smaller chance of clipping the finer dots. Typical lpi’s run are between 50 lpi and 60 lpi (with the appropriate emulsion). With a DTS unit, higher LPI’s are attainable.

Saati HI-DRO is a high modulus, low elongation mono-filament polyester screen printing fabric with a proprietary surface treatment. Developed to meet the requirements of garment printing applications. Especially designed to optimize the deposit when printing with water-based inks or plastisol, this new range was constructed maintaining the same mesh count and using thinner thread diameters.
Please note, thin thread is inherently more fragile. Handle with care.
