The HC Companies Square Deep Press Fit Pot | Black - 3.5in D x 3.5in H - Max Liquid Volume: 1.08pt (Case of 450)

Precision Press-Fit Rim for Transplant Lines, 1.08pt

Automated transplant lines and press-fit potting equipment need pots with a precisely molded rim that seats consistently every time, without jamming or misfeeding on the line. The HC Companies Square Deep Press Fit Pot is engineered to that tolerance, with a deep profile that gives roots more vertical room than a standard shallow tray cell.

At 3.5in D x 3.5in H with a 1.08pt capacity, this size steps up from the smallest press-fit pot for plants needing more root room after initial propagation. Sold in cases of 450, it fits commercial repotting schedules.

Key Features & Benefits

• Precision press-fit rim — molded to a consistent tolerance so pots seat reliably on automated or manual press-fit transplant equipment.
• Deep square profile — 3.5in H gives roots more vertical room than a shallow tray cell of similar footprint.
• 1.08pt capacity — sized for plants stepping up after initial propagation into early vegetative growth.
• Square shape — maximizes bench and tray density compared to round pots of similar volume.
• Case of 450 — matched to commercial repotting replacement cycles.

Who Should Use The HC Companies Square Deep Press Fit Pot
