Ecotex Mountable Screen Coating Station - Stable Emulsion Mount

Our review of the Ecotex Mountable Screen Coating Station finds it ideal for screen printers who want a simple, durable way to get consistent emulsion coats. The bottom line: this mount removes the awkward one-handed hold and holds a screen at the correct angle so the scoop coater can deliver an even film every time. Installation is straightforward, the aluminum and steel build feels solid, and because it frees both hands the mount directly improves coating pressure and uniformity for hobbyists and production shops alike.

Key Features

• Easy installation: The mount comes with an aluminum extrusion, two mounting brackets and six screws to mount onto wood or a wall in a few quick steps.
• Durable construction: Built from aluminum and steel so the mount resists flex and holds screen frames steadily during coating.
• Proper frame angle: The mount angles the frame correctly so the scoop coater rides evenly across the mesh for consistent emulsion thickness.
• Hands-free coating: By stabilizing the screen, the mount frees both hands to control pressure and blade angle for repeatable results.
• Made in the USA: The product is manufactured domestically, which may appeal to buyers seeking locally made screen printing tools.

Who It's For

The Ecotex Mountable Screen Coating Station is best for small shops, freelance printers and serious hobbyists who frequently coat screens and want improved consistency without redesigning their workspace. It benefits users who currently hold frames by hand and need a reliable mounting solution that keeps the frame steady and positioned at the right angle.

It is less suitable for users who need a fully mobile or folding system, or for printers who require integrated vacuum or clamp systems not provided here. If you need a complete coating table with adjustable height and vacuum, consider higher-end coating tables instead.
