SideKick Heat Press

The HIX SideKick heat transfer machine is a manual heat press offering the convenience of twin lower platens with the proven reliability of our exclusive top-down linkage system. Providing up to 1,200 lbs of downward pressure with very little effort. The SideKick 20 will help improve your production output by allowing the operator to work continuously with the two stations. The easy movement of the manually operated sliding head gives easy access to the lower platens for precise substrate placement at an affordable price. 

At the heart of these presses is the heat casting that is manufactured in-house using an exclusive aluminum alloy to maximize the heat transfer. The floating lower platen helps to provide even pressure from edge to edge at all temperatures and even works on thicker substrates. The easy to open and close handle is equipped with a spring assist, a full range pressure adjustment, and adds 20% more pressure compared to straight handle designs.
