Climax Register Hooks
A ierfect plate mounting and registering system must possess certain essential features, such as an unyielding and perfectly
ee  i si; atiti. oustril cf hli plates speed in clamping and releasing plates racidity and exactness in mnawc-up; narrow
margins; rigid support fur the entire plate; strength and durability
without unnecessary weight and ability to make u t  forms on the
FC [ -1 M/1 X                     stone or press. To secure the perfectly even base, cast ion has been
6i mi. 14  -145.                used, as it is stronger and more rigid than any known alloy. A per-
fect register is best secured by absolute and individual control of the
plate. To do this there is only iine way, by means of
register hooks. Speed is essential., By means of the.
register hooks and bases great rapidity has been
attained. Narrow margins effect a saving in paper.
e  ~         The Climax Register Hooks permit much narrower margins than any
other way. The iron bases pirovide a rigid pilate at all points. For
strength and durability the hoillow iron bases form an almost ideal  tl iia ia ititt No.

\V t    1/-1 H   greatly reduces the waiting time of the presses, as with register hooks and bases one can make
up forms on the stone or on the press.
Cli  Ri't' 11(d-   I     Rouse Bases are made of the best gray iron, accurately machined to the point system, They

jusifirs.A uitmay be lifted and a hook with its justifiers substituted.
Th  oy ofh Climax Register Hootk is made of hard drawn br-ass arid a threaded steel bushing which ran

is isurd. Te jw is made of steel the full width of the body. This prevents the jaw destroying the register.
The eadof he crew is let into the back of the wall and forms an effectual shield to prevent scratching itr
burrng.Therecsin the back of the jaw permits the narrow margin of eight points. The screw is of hardened
stel ad i keedto the jaw, thus forming a two-piece hook, the very essence of strength and simplicity and

TeCiaRegister Hooks are made in two sizes: No. 1, four by six ems, is especially adapted for very
smal i~ltcs  i  .trimely narrow margins, such as post cards. No, 2, six by six ems, has been designed for all narrowv margins.
