FAQ

Q1: Why are PU squeegees better than rubber ones?
PU squeegees offer higher wear resistance, better edge retention, and longer service life, resulting in more consistent printing quality.

Q2: How do I choose the right hardness for screen printing?
Soft blades are suitable for heavy ink deposits and uneven surfaces, medium hardness for general printing, and hard blades for fine details and sharp edges.

Q3: Can the squeegee blades be customized?
Yes, sizes, hardness levels, edge shapes, and colors can be fully customized.

Q4: Are PU squeegees resistant to solvents and inks?
Yes, polyurethane performs well with most screen printing inks and cleaning chemicals.

Q5: What is the typical lifespan of a PU screen printing squeegee?
PU blades generally last much longer than rubber squeegees, especially in high-volume production environments.
