Hard Black Rubber Roller with Wooden Handle – 4in

Hard black rubber rollers (brayers) for inking up lino, wood and other relief blocks. The firm rubber lays down a thin, even film of ink on the high points of the block without pushing into the cut areas, giving crisp, clean prints.

Each roller has a wooden handle for a comfortable grip and is available in 2in, 4in and 6in widths to suit blocks of different sizes. They are also useful for burnishing collage, pressing down glued papers and mono printing.

Roll ink out on a smooth slab until it makes a fine, velvety sound before charging the block, and clean the roller straight after use. A good brayer is an essential part of any relief printmaking kit, whether you are a beginner cutting your first lino block or an experienced printmaker producing editions. Keep rollers resting on their frames rather than on the rubber to protect the surface.
