Essdee Ink Rollers (or Brayers) are known worldwide and come in a variety of sizes and specifications to suit your project. Hard rubber rollers are the de facto standard for Lino printing, but softer rubber rollers can be more forgiving and easier to use. If you are block printing we have a roller to suit your needs!

The Standard Essdee Ink Roller is a strong, sturdy and versatile hard-rubber ink roller ideal for printmaking. This printmaking tool features a perfect machine round 70 shore EPDM rubber roller and can be used with both water and oil-based inks. It is even strong enough to be used for industrial purposes like the application of window films and vehicle graphics.

The Fabric Ink Roller is a specially designed roller for block printing onto textiles and fabric.. This absorbent fabric roller is designed to pickup and transfer thinner water-based inks, like screen printing ink or fabric paint, which would be too slippery for a normal roller, and transfer it to a Lino block for printing. A great tool which opens-up new possibilities when block printing onto fabric.
