Blick Standard Squeegee - 18", 50-55 Durometer

These squeegees are manufactured to Blick's specifications. Kiln-dried and precision cut lumber is used for the no-warp handles, which are smooth, comfortably shaped and easy to handle. Blades are molded under high heat and pressure and have a tensile strength of more than 2,000 lb. This eliminates ink streaking and provides a superior long-lasting printing edge. Excellent abrasion and solvent resistance. Squeegee blades are inserted into the wood handle and stapled in position, then professionally sharpened after assembly. Use for both graphic and textile applications, for all hand printing and many machine applications. The 3/8"W × 1-7/8" thick rounded, transparent yellow blade is used for printing through coarser mesh counts to lay down a heavy deposit of ink on dark backgrounds, athletic wear, or absorbent materials such as fleece.
