Choosing the Size and Shape

Pads come in a variety of shapes and sizes, below are some examples of standard pads. Generally, the pad with the steepest angle, hardest durometer, and the greatest mass will generate the best print quality. The pad should be at least 20-30% larger than the maximum image size required. Pad recommendations are readily available from our Technical Service Department. For a recommendation, send the image size, location, and a sample of the substrate to our technical team here. You can also check out All American’s Custom Pad Catalog.
