Squeegees for Screen Printing

Screen printing squeegees and ink spreading tools

In this store category you will find a complete selection of screen printing squeegees in different sizes, designed to give control, precision and good results on fabrics, paper and other materials. Screen printing squeegees are one of the most important tools in the screen printing process, because they push the ink across the screen printing frame and transfer the design onto the printing surface. We always recommend choosing a squeegee slightly wider than the design to be printed (for example, for a 10 cm wide logo choose a 12.5 or 16.5 cm squeegee): this way the print will be more detailed.

Choosing the right squeegee has a major impact on print quality. For this reason, our squeegees are selected to offer good ink pickup, even distribution and long life even with frequent use, both for DIY and professional printing.

Screen printing squeegees for beginners and professionals

With 12 widths and two handle types you can choose the squeegee that fits the ink you use, the detail of your design and the printing surface, for apparel, decorative prints and small production runs.

Wooden and aluminium screen printing squeegees

This category includes wooden squeegees in 12 widths, from 12.5 cm to 100 cm. The blade is Vulkollan (9 x 50 mm, 75 Shore), a polyurethane that resists solvents and works with water based, plastisol and solvent based screen printing inks.

The aluminium handle squeegee is lighter and has a softer Vulkollan blade (9 x 50 mm, 60 Shore A). A softer blade lays down more ink and suits uneven surfaces and thicker inks.
