Craftsmanship

Each brayer is manufactured and inspected by hand at Takach Press in the USA. These precision tools are built by hand and inspected at every step to ensure each brayer has the following qualities:

Round
Easy to roll
Impeccable rubber surface quality

Durometer is a measure of rubber hardness with many overlapping scales. Values for each hardness range from 0 to 100, with higher values indicating harder rubber. We specify our brayers with a durometer in the shore O hardness scale.
