Monforts Stenter Pin Plate Type 1
Pin plate for Monforts stenter rails in our first plate pattern. Copper plate body with two rows of carbon steel or stainless steel pins, sized to seat in the Monforts pin plate holder. Monforts is the machine brand we carry the deepest stock for, and this is the plate most often reordered against a Montex rail.
Key Benefits
- Seats directly in the Monforts pin plate holder with no rail work
- Two pin rows at 3 to 4 pins per cm, pins standing about 5 mm proud
- Copper plate body draws chamber heat away from the pin roots
- Carried as a stock line, so full sets go out in 7 days
Application Scenarios
- Montex heat setting ranges running polyester and polyamide
- Finishing lines recovering width after dyeing
- Rails being rebuilt during a planned shutdown
Who It Is For
- Textile finishing mills running Monforts pin stenters
- Maintenance teams rebuilding a pin rail after a chain overhaul
- Machinery dealers and service companies holding spare part stock for customers
- Mills standardising their whole machine park on one plate pattern
Problems It Solves
- Worn or bent pins let the selvedge slip, so the fabric loses width and the edge frays.
- Pins that sit too low press the fabric onto the hot base plate and scorch the selvedge.
- OEM plates can take weeks to arrive and the stenter stands still while you wait.

How It Compares
| Compared With | What Changes |
|---|---|
| Monforts pin plate type 2 | Same machine brand, a second plate pattern. Check the hole centres and plate length against the plate you are pulling out. |
| Monforts clips | Pins hold more tension and let the cloth run faster. Clips leave no pin mark in the selvedge. |

Why Fabric Leaves the Stenter Narrower Than It Should
Width loss is almost always a grip problem, not a setting problem. Work through the rail in order: brush, pins or clips, holders, chain, guide.
Read GuideMonforts Stenter Pin Plate Type 1 Questions
Which Monforts models does this plate fit?
It fits Monforts pin rails using this plate pattern. Send us a photo of the plate in the holder with a ruler across the fixing holes and we will confirm before you order.
There are two Monforts plate patterns on your site. Which do I need?
Measure the hole to hole distance and the plate length on your old plate. Send us both numbers and we will tell you which pattern matches.
Can I mix new and old plates on the same rail?
We do not recommend it. Mixed plates give uneven pin height, which shows up as uneven selvedge grip across the rail.
Do you supply the pin plate holder too?
Yes, against a sample or a drawing. Ask us with a photo of your holder.
