Speedball 10-Inch Nitrile Squeegee, 65 Durometer

Im a beginner so this does the job for now.

It is well built and does work well for beginners that are just starting printing by silk screening. It has rounded edges on the blade and for my purpose, it spreads too much inch unlike squeegees with sharp square blades. That is the reason for only 4 three stars.

Large, study and very well made. I love Speedball products. This squeegee worked perfectly with my new screen printing frame. Easy to clean and takes wear and tear with a breeze. If youve been using an old credit card, go ahead and invest in this little guy, it is well worth it. It has a nice little punch out hole to hang from the wall when not in use. Fits well in your hands and pulls very smoothly across screens. Very lightweight with a nice thick rubber rib for pulling your paints.

I use this one for the larger images but with small hands its not my favorite.

Works like a charm and the size is great for my 12x12in. Silkscreen.

Works good

Good.

I only occasionally screenprint. I have my own screen and inks, which I occasionally lend to people. One such occasion it came back sans squeegee. No one fessed up regarding who had taken it or broken it or whatever, but the fact remained that I needed a new squeegee. After looking at a bunch of cheaper ones (similar to what I had previously owned), I decided to purchase a higher quality squeegee. When I received it, I was not disappointed. It looked to be well-made, it was properly sanded so I would not be at risk of getting nonstop splinters, and the rubber squeegee part was secured with staples on each side. I ordered the 10 squeegee because I have a 10x14 Speedball screen. It is a very close fit. I think the squeegee might actually be slightly larger than 10 or my screen opening slightly smaller, because this is very difficult to sweep over in one even pass. I solved that problem by just passing the squeegee over at a slight angle. After a few uses, I have noticed that the wood at the rubber squeegee part is starting to pull away from the rubber. I do not know if this is my fault from washing or drying it improperly, but I would hope that something that is going to be around water consistently would not warp as this one is doing. That is the reason I am only giving this four stars. The squeegee is still secured, but this extra gap makes it easier for inks to get caught in there and then ruin a later print. I might fill the gap with some E-6000 glue to prevent this from happening.

Works wonderfully. Very durable and is easy to clean and met my expectations.

Thin! also weird rubber shape
