Aluminum Plate Backers
"Both at my studio and at the University studio we use Takach rollers, Takach aluminum plates, Takach scraper bars, and at UT we use the lightweight Takach plate backer, a must for every school shop."

Precision Aluminum Plate Backer
Precision ground on both sides, this 1" thick aluminum backer features a phenolic-resin sheet bonded to one side. This provides a durable work surface that will prevent scratching and is easy to clean. If the printer prefers, he or she may turn the backer over and use the bare aluminum surface as the top side of the backer.Aluminum Plate Backer Information | |||
