silicon for pad printing FAQs:
Why the silicon pad is non-durable？
1. It has something to do with the addition of silicone oil. More silicone oil added, softer the pad printing will be, meanwhile the pad will be turned to be non-durable and easy ageing;
2. Some customers are unawre of the performance of silicone rubber. Actually, the durability of silicone printing pad is closely related to the size of printing patterns. Usually, we use large silicon pad for big patterns. On the contrary, small silicone pad ofr small patterns. Generally, the ratio of pad to pattern is 3:1.

Why the silicon pad did not absorb the ink?
Any silicon pad or liquid silicon rubber could absorb ink well. If large patterns or big letters need to print, the printing pad will for sure absorb ink well. For small letters, please do not use hard silicon pad, as it could not absorb the printing ink thoroughly from the steel plate.
