Grid Plates

While all grid plates are not created equal We carry several options to suite your needs. Whether it is our Lab Safe Grid Plate, 490 Plus, or R.G each one has a certain purpose to get the outcome your customers deserve. 

A Grid Plate For Every Application

490 Plus Grid Plate

490 Plus®

 This 490 Plus® Nomex cloth covered grid plate is used and recommended as original equipment by leading manufacturers.  The 490 Plus® Nomex cloth is the only cloth in the industry that has PTFE impregnated into the Nomex.  The 490 Plus® cloth provides the highest quality finishing with less shine and less texture marks than other plates on the market. It is the longest lasting, best performing cloth covered plate available at competitive pricing. 

Lab Safe Grid Plate

Lab Safe

  This PTFE coated grid plate is recommended for finishing of linens, cottons, and many other fabrics that require maximum heat for finishing.  There is about a 60 to 80 degree difference in temperature between our 490 Plus ® and Lab Safe Grid Plate.  The Lab Safe Grid Plate has a heavy PTFE baked finish for the best finish possible.  

R.G Grid Plate Felt

R.G

This grid plate uses our 490 Plus Nomex material along with a pile layer of material between the outer cloth and inner plate. This plate is excellent for fabrics that need a soft press with no leave-off marks.  

More Holes Per Square Inch!

Grid Plate Composition

The picture to the right is a great example of one of the many things we focus on to distinguish our items from our competition.  Out of the three metal samples, 2 are from our competitors and 1 is from a Lab Test grid plate. While the larger perforated holes are cheaper to source, we have our aluminum custom perforated to increase the steam diffusion and reduce nickel markings that may come from a lower quality grid plate.
