Products: Dampening Covers: GSS News-Knit®

Jomac Green Synthetic Shrink News-Knit (GSS News-Knit®) is a synthetic shrink dampening cover specially made for the water pick-up rollers of most newspaper web presses. This durable cover offers the perfect alternative to traditional cotton covers, lasting up to 5 times longer.

GSS News-Knit® is a density knit, highly absorbent cover which allows for faster start-ups, excellent water control and better print quality.

Save money with less down time because GSS News-Knit® has specially treated fibers that are easy to clean, and stay clean longer as they resist ink build up. This product is shrink-fit, meaning it resists twisting and creeping, and allows for fast and easy installation – simply run under hot water and the cover shrink to fit the roller.

Application
