Screen Hooks (for Ergo-Force Squeegees) - Plastic
Add more versatility to your Ergo-Force Squeegees with Screen-Hooks by Ink Innovations.
Screen-Hooks do three things:
1) Allow your EF-Squeegee to "hook" to the top of the screen frame.
2) Prevent the handle from falling into the ink while printing.
3) Allow your EF-Squeegee to be permanently stored with the blade up on any flat surface.
Screen-Hooks are similar in function to our T-rrific T-hooks however, screen hooks have been specially designed for Ergo-Force Squeegees. Screen-Hooks are one of the most helpful devices on the market for manual screen printers. Screen-Hooks will increase your production and SAVE your BACK by enabling your squeegees to "HOOK" conveniently to the top of your screen frame.
Screen-Hooks will also allow your Ergo-Force to be safely stored (with the blade facing up) on any flat surface without the use of a squeegee rack. Now you can simply set your squeegee down on any nearby flat surface (a table, a shelf, the top of your dryer, the center of your press, etc.) and not waste valuable time walking across your shop to your squeegee rack.
This is how Screen Hooks will improve your production, increase your profits and save your back: When you rest your squeegee at the far end of the screen against the print head between prints, valuable time is wasted as you reach for your squeegee and again when you return your squeegee. It requires you to "bend twice" (wasting valuable time) for every single imprint and for each color in the design; You bend once to pick up the squeegee and then bend again to return the squeegee. -- Screen Hooks allow you to conveniently store your squeegee at the top of the frame between prints. You are able to grab the squeegee while you lower the screen down and can have the squeegee in your hand ready to print even before the screen is all of the way down. When you raise the screen after the print stroke, you simply "hook" the squeegee to the top edge of the frame in a very natural, smooth ergonomic motion.
The time savings really add up. -- EXAMPLE: If you save just 3 seconds per imprint, you would save 5 minutes on a 100-piece, one color, dark ink on white substrate job. How many dark-on-light shirts can you print in 5 extra minutes? ...probably a bunch. Also, because you will not be bending, you will use less energy (so your back will not be as sore). By exerting less energy, you will be more productive later in the day when normally you start to slow down due to fatigue. Screen-Hooks will usually pay for themselves in as little as one day! Then you keep on benefiting and profiting every day thereafter.
This product has the potential to earn you additional money every day of the week... forever, by increasing your daily production. Screen-Hooks will save your back and can increase your production output every day!
Screen Hooks will attach to the top of wooden frames, aluminum frames, and roller frames.
Screen-Hooks are super easy to install and can be removed and re-installed quickly! The screws do NOT need to be removed to uninstall Screen Hooks. Simply loosen each screw a quarter turn and the Screen Hooks can be removed.
Screen Hooks can be removed from one squeegee, then installed onto another Ergo-Force squeegee in about 30 seconds with just a Phillips head screwdriver. (TIP: you can purchase additional screws and install our special thread-cutting screws on all of your Ergo-Force squeegees and buy only a few sets of Screen-Hooks!)
The ends are capped with specially formulated black vinyl caps that protect your mesh and are resistant to ink and chemicals.
Try them...You will love them!
