M-FLEX® II is the second generation doctor blade in the M-FLEX® series that gives all the wear resistance of M-FLEX® I, but it’s more refined microstructure provides longer life and more uniform edge wear.

MICROSTRUCTURE MATTERS

Compared to standard strip steel, the M-FLEX® II doctor blade’s microstructure is defined by it’s small and evenly distributed carbide particulate which assures slow and even edge wear, low friction, and smooth ink film formation.  For you that means a higher quality doctor blade that reduces the likelihood of common print defects, reduces wear to your anilox rolls or cylinders, and allows you to run your blades longer.
