Apollo Rubber is the name I think. I'd have to go check a box upstairs so let me know if that doesn't get you anywhere.

We have been using the stuff from http://www.goldupusa.com/triple-duro-squeegee-roll/ for a couple of months not and have been very happy, with the rubber and the PRICE!

It is 9mil

according to Pleigers website, they don't make a 9mm? only 9.5 and 8?

Their squeegee is slightly thinner.  I would think that .5 of a mm either way would not be that critical.  Unfortunately no SRoques near me or I would test it out.

Hopefully I'll never have to grow up and get a real job...

Desperate times desperate measures. You could get some 8mm and shim or thicker and CAREFULLY take a skim cut off the one side of the section that goes in the holder on a table saw.

tech support SP stocks and sells fimor/serilor blades. I would check with them.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

Gentlemen -

9mm = 0.354". Our standard US squeegee rubber thickness is 0.375". I don't think the .02" makes a difference.
