For the Form Roller.
Red Runners advanced new fiber technology sets it apart from other dampening sleeves. Red Runner provides the ultimate in slip-on, shrink fit design. Its unique fiber system delivers unprecedented control of ink/water balance. Red Runner Dampening Sleeves are long lasting, clean up easily and are lint-free. Unlike rigid tubes, Red Runner can't break, crack, split or shred. The problems of low spots, mourning bands and critical roller tolerances are eliminated And its consistent ultra-fine surface achieves a new level of pattern-free printing performance.
Unlike cumbersome rigid tubes, Red Runner Dampening Sleeves are conveniently packaged in small, easy to store containers Available in a full range of sizes, they are packaged six to a case.

Red Runner can be effectively used in the following dampening applications:
- As a replacement for rigid tube dampening sleeves using an over sized roller.
- Installed on oversized bareback dampening rollers.
- As a top (outer) cover going directly over an existing fabric cover thereby totally eliminating lint and pattern.

RED RUNNER's consistent and ultra-fine surface provides optimum water control and pattern-free performance.

Inconsistent surface with high/low spots can result in reduced water control when using rigid tubes.
