Takach Hand Inking Rollers And Brayers

Takach Hand Inking Roller

Takach Press Hand Inking Rollers are Made of High Quality Rubber on an Aluminum Core. We manufacture the finest inking rollers available. The rubber is a combination of natural rubber with Buna Nitrite blend. This blend of rubber keeps the durometer consistent and also gives the rubber a longer life span as well as the highest durability. This high quality rubber is wrapped on the aluminum roller core, cured, ground and polished. The wrapped rubber technique of rubber application is superior to cast rubber surface applications, since it will not revert to a liquid as is often seen in cast rubber rollers.
