FAQ

1. What hardness is best for screen printing squeegees?

The most commonly used hardness is 70–75 Shore A, which provides a good balance between flexibility and ink control.

2. Why choose polyurethane screen printing squeegees?

Polyurethane offers better abrasion resistance, longer service life, and more consistent printing performance compared to traditional rubber squeegees.

3. What edge type should I choose?

Square edges are suitable for most printing applications, while beveled or round edges may be used for specialty printing processes.

4. Can screen printing squeegees be customized?

Yes. Squeegees can be customized in hardness, size, edge profile, and color according to specific printing requirements.
