Lithco Plastic Ink Knives are molded from chemically-resistant polypropylene — a durable, solvent-safe alternative to metal and wood ink knives. They won't scratch nylon or Teflon™ ink feed systems, resist solvent absorption, and leave no crevices to trap ink residue or cause color contamination. Available in Small, Regular, Medium, and Large sizes; Medium and Large are especially effective for removing excess ink from fountains. Color may vary.
