A Urethane Printing Roller? Yes, A Urethane Printing Roller.
Smooth-On's Urethane Rubbers are used successfully every day in many unique industrial applications because they are easy to process yet tough enough to withstand even the most demanding environments.
Machines used in the printing industry utilize rollers fitted with a rubber 'sleeve' to help control the application of ink onto paper. These rubber sleeves must withstand thousands of revolutions per minute, running hours on-end and produce consistent results. Furthermore, when the sleeves do break down, machine operators frequently need to replace these rollers fast.

After trying a variety of silicones, Ross-Tek chose this unique urethane for it's chemical solvent resistance and durability. PMC®-724 lasts for about 1 million impressions vs. silicones tested which have not lasted nearly as long.
