Achieve heavier ink deposit and smoother ink flow with Squeegee Blades, soft 60 durometer orange squeegee blades designed for screen printing applications that require increased ink coverage and softer printing pressure.
These professional replacement squeegee blades are ideal for plastisol inks, specialty inks, shimmer, puff, athletic printing, and lower mesh count applications where a softer blade helps push more ink through the stencil.
The 60 durometer hardness provides greater flexibility compared to harder squeegee rubbers, making it a popular choice for printers seeking bold prints, increased opacity, and specialty ink effects.
Soft Squeegee Rubber for Heavy Ink Deposit
Softer squeegee blades flex more during printing, allowing greater ink transfer through the mesh. This makes 60 durometer rubber especially useful for printing white ink, specialty inks, athletic prints, and bold graphics that require stronger coverage.
The orange color also helps quickly identify blade hardness in busy production environments.

Printing on Textiles:Soft squeegees work well on fabric as they can accommodate the uneven surfaces and textures, ensuring a good ink deposit.
Underbase Printing:For creating a solid underbase layer, a soft squeegee ensures the ink fully covers the surface.
Why Choose 60 Durometer Squeegee Rubber?
Lower durometer blades are softer and more flexible, allowing printers to lay down more ink during each print stroke. This is especially important when printing opaque whites, specialty effects, or designs that require strong color coverage.
Soft blades can also help improve ink flow on textured garments and specialty substrates.
