Shur-Loc Mesh Panel M3 23" x 31" - 137 Yellow Round
Precision-cut 137-count yellow screen printing mesh panel designed for 23" × 31" M3 roller frames, providing consistent tension, dependable registration, and reliable performance for general-purpose textile screen printing.
Characteristics
The Shur-Loc Mesh Panel M3 23" x 31" – 137 Yellow Round is a precision-cut replacement mesh panel designed specifically for 23" × 31" M3-style roller frames. Shur-Loc fabric panels provide an easy and repeatable way to stretch mesh in-house while helping printers achieve consistent screen tension from frame to frame.
Featuring 137-count yellow mesh, this panel provides a versatile balance between ink deposit and image detail, making it well suited for many general textile screen printing applications. The dyed yellow mesh helps reduce light scattering during exposure, which can contribute to improved stencil-edge definition compared with comparable white mesh.
Shur-Loc panels incorporate an engineered panel shape with pre-softened corners and deflection curves designed to help the mesh reach optimal tension when installed. The panel system allows shops to stretch screens internally without glue, compressed air, or electricity.
The panel is also removable and reusable, allowing the mesh to be removed from a compatible roller frame when necessary. Shur-Loc states that its mesh panels are manufactured at its facility in Monroe, Washington, USA.

- Suitable for general textile screen printing
- Made in the USA by Shur-Loc
- Install the panel only on a compatible 23" × 31" M3 roller frame.
- Follow Shur-Loc's recommended stretching sequence and tension guidelines during installation.
- Increase tension gradually and evenly around the frame rather than attempting to reach final tension in a single adjustment.
- Maintain even tension across the printing area to help support consistent registration and print quality.
- Because yellow mesh absorbs more exposure light than undyed white mesh, exposure times may need to be adjusted.
- Optimize exposure according to the emulsion, exposure unit, coating technique, and stencil thickness being used.
- Perform an exposure test when establishing settings for a new mesh and emulsion combination.
- Verify final mesh tension with a calibrated tension meter before coating and exposing the screen.
- Proper and consistent tension can help improve registration, print consistency, and overall screen performance.
