STRIP 150

UV Printing and Coating Blanket

Download Brochure

The Strip 150 is a dedicated UV printing and coating blanket, built with a harder face. It represents the latest in rubber surface technology for unsurpassed performance with UV inks.

This newly developed polymer surface resists the swelling and embossing that are common with UV. In conjunction with the new surface, the Strip 150 has a special surface grind enhancing release, thus minimizing UV solvent, ink and coating penetrating the face, which is one of the biggest causes of swelling.

For the printer this means fewer blanket changes, so fewer, and quicker blanket wash-ups, and thus a higher press productivity. The Strip 150 also delivers clean, sharp and consistent dots for excellent print quality as well as dense and rich solids. The Strip 150 has a totally new construction, which makes it particularly suitable for use in plastic printing and metal decorating.

The stencil depth of around 1 mm, when stripped inside the compressible layer, makes the Strip 150 the perfect choice for non-repeat, high quality UV coating jobs.
