Rubber for window squeegees PULEX
All rubber blades guarantee a perfect combination of three requirements – the type and nature of the rubber, the quality of the mix and the cutting edge of the blade.
The Pulex rubbers are internally produced in Italy with TQR process which involves:
- Check of the raw material, real Malaysian vulcanized natural rubber
- Quality control of the mix (perfect molecular dispersion, elasticity and hardness; color and surface uniformity)
- Control of each rubber blade, one by one with a manual final test
- Perfection of the two edges of the rubber
- The parts around the edges must be free of flaws
- Laborious and lengthy tests ensure the quality of the TQR process
- Available hard (53° shore A) or soft (48° shore A)
The use of PULEX rubber blades will result to:
- Better performance, faster cleaning
- Perfect window cleaning
- Minimal deformation at the contact with the glass and dirt
- Elasticity, hardness
- Resistance to chemicals and atmospheric agents
- Color and surface uniformity
- Consistency in the highest percentage of natural rubber
The rubber of Pulex is the key:
The rubber blade is the main component of every squeegee since it is the element that comes into direct contact with glass and dirt. In the vast majority of squeegees available on the market the blade gets deformed when it comes into contact with dirt, which is abrasive, and is exposed to atmospheric agents or is subjected to friction on window frames and under the eaves. This is pre- cisely why TQR (Total Quality Rubber) came about, which makes Pulex rubber the only one on the market used in a total quality squeegee. All our rubber blades guarantee a perfect combination of three requirements – the type and nature of the rubber, the quality of the mix and the cutting edge of the blade.
Our blades are made of genuine vulcanized natural rubber (NR), which is subjected to compres- sion moulding, item by item, and must have consistent and homogeneous chemical and organic features.
We process the raw material to obtain a mix with no impurities that guarantees the vital requisites of perfect molecular dispersion, crosslinking, elasticity, snap, resilience, hardness, resistance to chemical and atmospheric agents, colouring and surface smoothness.
This brings us to namely the perfection and linearity of the blade’s cleaning edge, which depends on the cut made by precision machines and scrupulous quality control.
