23x31in Pre-Burned Screen

Our 23x31 pre-burned screens have a 15"x23" max image area. Great for printing oversize t-shirt designs, and are also the standard size for most automatic presses.

Multiple images can be burned on a screen as long as they all fit within the 15”x23” max image area.

All our pre-burned screens come stretched on heavy duty aluminum frames, and are carefully packaged to ensure a safe arrival. Simply open your box, tape up the edges, and get printing.

Pre-burned screens typically last for thousands of prints, and adding hardener will make them last even longer. Make sure to store your pre-burned screen somewhere safe from sharp objects, sources of extreme heat, and only use appropriate screen printing cleaners.

Final film output/screen size may vary by 1/8".

Mesh Counts

  • 110 Mesh - Great for printing with white and other thick inks. Not recommended for thinner water based inks.
  • 160/200 Mesh - Most popular mesh counts for our pre-burned screens. Work well with a wide variety of ink types.
  • 230 Mesh - Most commonly used for high detail artwork. Also great for printing on paper or sanded wood.
  • 280/305 Mesh - Super fine detail, halftones and CMYK process printing. Also good for printing on plastic and metal.

In general, a lower mesh count will lay down a thicker layer of ink and hold less detail. A finer or higher mesh count will lay down a thinner layer of ink and hold more fine detail.

Emulsion Types

  • TX-D (pink) emulsion holds up extremely well to plastisol, water based and discharge inks.
  • HXT (blue) emulsion is recommended for printing with solvent, enamel or uv inks.

Adding hardener to your pre-burned screen makes the emulsion extremely durable and difficult to reclaim.
