Stahls Heat Transfer Clamshell Heat Press

​👕 Thermal Transfer Heat Press

​This is a robust, professional-grade clamshell heat press, ideal for both business use and serious hobbyists in garment decoration and custom item creation.

​Key Features & Specifications:
​Design: Clamshell style, meaning the upper heating element lifts up and opens like a clamshell, offering full access to the lower platen for easy material placement.

​Power & Voltage: The base label clearly indicates it is a powerful unit:
​Power: 1800 Watts
​Voltage: 230 Volts AC (This is crucial and means the machine is wired for use in regions with 220-240V mains, such as the UK, Europe, or Australia).

​Model: QPP381.

​Build Quality: Constructed with a sturdy grey and black metal frame, designed for durability and consistent pressure application. The mechanism features strong springs, visible on the side, which help in applying even and firm pressure.

​Platens:
​Upper Heating Platen (Top): Black, with a Warning/Hazard Triangle symbol, indicating the surface gets extremely hot.

​Lower Pressing Platen (Bottom): Covered with a thick grey rubber/silicone pad, which provides a cushioned, heat-resistant surface for pressing materials.

​Control Panel: A digital control box is mounted on the side for precise settings:
​Digital Display: A clear red LED display shows current readings (e.g., 014 or 093).
​Controls: Buttons for MODE, SET, and potentially Up/Down (indicated by small arrows), allowing the user to set and adjust:
​TEMP (Temperature): For setting the desired heat (e.g., in Celsius or Fahrenheit).
​TIME: For setting the pressing duration (in seconds).

​Power Switch & Fuse:
​Illuminated Power Switch: A red, rocker-style switch with an internal light to clearly indicate when the machine is powered ON (visible in the photo).

​Fuse: A small silver round socket labeled '15' likely holds a 15 Amp fuse, acting as a safety cutoff for the 1800W, 230V system.

​Handle: Features a large, ergonomic, padded black foam grip for comfortable and safe operation when opening and closing the press.

​Connectivity: Uses a standard, grounded power cable plugged into an IEC C14-style inlet, typical for professional equipment.

​Condition and Aesthetics
​The machine is in excellent, well-maintained working order with the power on and the display showing readings and that it heats up correctly.

There is only typical light wear consistent with a machine used for crafting or production.

​Ideal Use For:
​Custom T-shirts, hoodies, bags, ceramic tiles, wood plaques, mousepads, and other flat items that require heat and pressure for transfer application.

New machines similar to this one retail at 1k and above so grab a bargain before I change my mind and keep it!

It is super heavy so not suitable for postage. Collection only.
