PET1500 Mesh 305/40 Yellow 53"
Professional 305-count yellow monofilament polyester screen printing mesh with a 40-micron thread diameter, engineered for high-resolution graphics, fine halftones, controlled ink deposits, and consistent screen tension.
Characteristics
The PET1500 Mesh 305/40 Yellow – 53" is a professional-grade monofilament polyester screen printing mesh designed for applications requiring excellent image definition, dimensional stability, and dependable production performance. The combination of a 305 mesh count and 40-micron thread diameter provides the fine mesh structure needed for detailed graphics, fine halftones, small text, and controlled ink deposits.
The yellow-dyed mesh helps reduce light scattering during exposure compared with undyed white mesh. This can help maintain sharper stencil edges and improve reproduction of fine details, particularly when working with high-resolution artwork and fine halftones.
Constructed from durable polyester monofilament, PET1500 mesh provides consistent tension characteristics and dimensional stability when properly stretched and mounted. Its fine thread construction makes it well suited for applications where precise ink control and high image resolution are more important than heavy ink deposits.
Supplied in a 53-inch width, this mesh is suitable for stretching a variety of screen frame sizes used in professional textile, graphics, and precision screen printing operations.

- Designed for consistent tension and dimensional stability
- Suitable for precision screen printing applications
- 53-inch roll width accommodates a variety of frame sizes
- Stretch the mesh evenly and follow the appropriate tension specifications for the frame and printing application.
- Allow newly stretched screens to stabilize before coating when appropriate for your stretching method.
- Thoroughly clean and degrease the mesh before coating with emulsion.
- Use a screen printing emulsion formulated for the ink system and level of detail being produced.
- Optimize exposure time for the emulsion, coating thickness, mesh color, and exposure equipment being used.
- Yellow mesh typically requires exposure settings appropriate for dyed mesh; perform an exposure test when establishing production settings.
- Use suitable squeegee pressure, angle, speed, and off-contact to maintain fine detail and prevent excessive ink deposits.
- Fine mesh counts such as 305 are best suited for inks that can pass properly through the mesh opening.
- Avoid damaging or creasing the mesh during handling, stretching, storage, and reclaiming.
- Ideal for high-resolution graphics, fine halftones, detailed line work, small lettering, process and simulated-process work, controlled ink deposits, and other precision screen printing applications.
