Description
The Takach Press 18 in. x 36 in. x 1/8 in. Pusher Blanket is the industry standard for professional intaglio and relief printing. Crafted from 100% high-density woven wool, this 1/8 in. (0.125 inch) blanket is specifically designed to be the top layer of your blanket stack. As a "Pusher," its primary role is to withstand the direct friction and pressure of the press's top steel roller while providing the necessary resilience to drive the paper into the plate’s etched lines.
Unlike cheaper pressed felts that degrade and flatten over time, our woven construction ensures long-term durability and consistent pressure distribution. This blanket is an essential investment for university print labs and professional studios seeking to maintain the highest print quality and protect their lower blankets (cushions and sizing catchers) from excessive wear.
