Flow oil

Flow Oil is a premium ink additive formulated to optimize press performance by significantly improving ink transfer and reducing tack. Specially engineered for high-precision printing, it enhances ink flow and workability across the rollers without affecting the final gloss or the critical setting time of the ink.

Flow Oil from Spring Inks is a specialized pressroom additive designed to fine-tune ink rheology and mechanical behavior on the press. It provides operators with precise control over ink consistency, ensuring smooth, trouble-free production runs especially when dealing with heavy or highly tacky inks.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Enhanced Ink Transfer: Greatly improves the distribution and transfer of ink from the fountain, across the roller train, and onto the substrate.

  • Effective Tack Reduction: Safely reduces excessive ink tack, which eliminates common press issues such as paper picking, linting, and blanket piling.

  • Preserved Gloss Levels: Specially formulated to modify physical flow properties without compromising or dulling the ink’s original high-gloss finish.

  • Stable Drying Profile: Lowers tack and viscosity smoothly without impacting the ink’s engineered setting time, ensuring your drying schedules remain completely predictable.
