PLEIGER Squeegees
Profiles and Applications

A critical aspect of screen printing is how well the squeegee can resist swelling when exposed to inks and harsh solvents. These squeegees are available in a variety of polyurethane compounds formulated to perform in these environments. UV, epoxy, enamel, vinyl, and other solvent based inks are extremely harsh on squeegee blades. Inferior squeegees tend to swell and wear at an accelerated rate due to their inability to resist harsh solvents.These squeegees are recommended because of their chemical resistance and exceptional abrasion resistance when exposed to high solvent content inks.
