FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

1. Which squeegee models is this blade compatible with?
   It is designed for Vikan's 7752x and 7762x series, whether with fixed or swivel head.
2. What is the difference between 7772/9 and 7772 (without suffix)?
   The suffix “/9” indicates the black version of the blade. There is also a white version (often “/5”) depending on the Vikan colors.
3. Up to what temperature can it be sterilized?
   The blade typically withstands up to ~80°C in an autoclave or wash cycle.
4. What is the diameter of the blade (thickness/width)?
   The blade measures approximately 30mm in width and ~45mm in height according to available datasheets.
5. What is the lifespan of this blade?
   This depends on usage, mechanical wear, and the chemicals used. In a standard environment, replace the blade as soon as scraping efficiency decreases or streaks appear.
6. How to install/replace it?
   The system is designed as a “click” cassette: simply release the worn blade and clip in the new one. (No special tools are required in most cases.)
7. Can it be used with all types of floors or surfaces?
   Yes, but you must check that the pressure and use are suitable for the surface. The foam/rubber blade is versatile but should not be aggressive on very sensitive surfaces.
8. Does it comply with food standards?
   For certain versions (notably the white version), the blade complies with CE requirements relating to materials in contact with food.
9. Can I clean it with harsh chemicals?
   The blade tolerates a pH range of 2 to 10.5 under normal usage conditions. Avoid products that are too aggressive or in extreme concentrations.
10. What is the suggested replacement frequency?
    There is no hard and fast rule; it depends on frequency of use, cleaning conditions, and production constraints. Monitor for visual wear or loss of performance when deciding on replacement.
