What is the difference between blue and white Sontara®?
Our cloth rolls are of the highest quality. There is no real difference. It is a customer preference.
I have end-of-roll sensors. Can you accommodate that?
Yes, Just let us know you have these sensors and we will provide the needed marks on the cloth rolls at no additional cost.
Can I use the same rolls for the Komori back cylinder or impression cylinder?
Due to the roughness of the back cylinder jackets on the Komori 40” perfector, Standard DuPont Sontara® cleaner cloth is not appropriate. Santec has developed a special abrasion resistant material for the back cylinder application – (part no. 2683AR).
Is there a special material for the Heidelberg impression cylinder?
Due to the roughness of the impression cylinder jackets on the Heidelberg perfectors, Standard DuPont Sontara® cleaner cloth is not appropriate.
