Description
A platen for every job. Quick-Change Platens let you pop the standard platen off and snap on a shape built for the item — sleeves and legs, slender youth/women’s sizes, pockets, shoes, hat bills, round designs and more. Each is a durable aluminum base with a 3/8″ silicone pad, and sets bundle the most useful sizes together.
