Water-Based Tread Striping Inks

Water-Based Tread Striping Ink is typically used in tire manufacturing to mark the centerline of a tire or extruded rubber tread during production for coding and identification purposes. The product can also be used to mark green rubber materials, including cured sheet rubber and external components. Inks are co-curable, contain no VOCs, and available in a wide variety colors. Best of all, this product has been proven to help reduce defects and waste in production.

    Low Viscosity, TC-Series

    The low viscosity line of tread striping ink, TC-series, is applied by a pressurized application system, where the ink is fed through a syringe or capillary tube and transfered onto the substrate by adjusting the air pressure of the system. Technical assistance on equipment setup and cleaning products are also available through APV. TC-series Ink can be ordered in gallon cans or five gallon pails.
