Custom Length Squeegee Blade and Wood Handle - Orange 60 Durometer

Custom Length Squeegee Blade and Wood Handle - Orange 60 DurometerOur orange 60 durometer squeegee blade is one of the softest blades available. It allows for a thicker ink deposit through lower mesh counts. The durometer is ideal for special effects like puff, glitters, shimmers, and high density applications. Squeegee blades are custom formulated to achieve high solvent resistance and excellent abrasion resistance. This combination results in a squeegee blade that will better maintain its durometer when subjected

Our orange 60 durometer squeegee blade is one of the softest blades available. It allows for a thicker ink deposit through lower mesh counts. The durometer is ideal for special effects like puff, glitters, shimmers, and high density applications.

Squeegee blades are custom formulated to achieve high solvent resistance and excellent abrasion resistance. This combination results in a squeegee blade that will better maintain its durometer when subjected to aggressive inks and solvents, showing minimal swelling during the print run, while retaining its sharp edge longer. This allows for continued quality during the screen print run, thereby increasing productivity.

The wooden handles are constructed of high-quality poplar to resist warping and splitting from repeated water and chemical exposure. The squeegee blade is glued to the handle.

Screen printers face many obstacles during production including difficult inks and irregular substrates at the press. Screen printing inks come with a wide variety of characteristics including some with extreme properties such as solvent additives and high and low viscosity. These variables require a wide variety of squeegee material to ensure printability and consistent results. In fact, there are a number of screen printers who are settling for sub-standard results because they simply haven’t been introduced to the squeegee types that are specifically designed for the inks or substrates they are using.
