Quick-Set Casting Compounds

Create detailed rubber shapes that are ready to use in fifteen minutes or less. Unlike traditional casting compounds, which can take up to 24 hours to set, these compounds harden after two minutes, and can be removed from molds within fifteen. Use them to make your own prototypes, molds, and linings.

Casting Compounds

Silicone Rubber

Soft—Soft silicone rubber is more flexible and easier to peel off of molds than medium silicone rubber, especially when making complex shapes.

Medium—Medium silicone rubber holds its shape better than soft silicone rubber, so small ridges and channels are less likely to collapse or deform while making molds.

69° F Cure Temperature—Combine acrylic plastic or silicone rubber with a 69° cure temperature compounds in different ratios to adjust the consistency from thin to thick. Thin mixtures are easier to pour and better for filling small crevices.

70° F Cure Temperature—Silicone rubber with a 70° cure temperature compounds are a putty that you can mix with your hands and form into any shape. Press an object into these compounds to create a mold for casting duplicates. They do not shrink as they dry, so textures and other fine details are captured faithfully.

See-Through Casting Compounds

Create transparent molds to monitor fill levels, differentiate parts at a glance, and avoid damaging parts when cutting the mold away. These casting compounds are two parts that activate when mixed.

Silicone Rubber—Silicone rubber compounds handle higher temperatures than urethane rubber compounds—up to 570° F. Silicone rubber also cures faster than urethane rubber, and it won't shrink as it cures, which means you won't need to guess at the final size of your mold. Because silicone rubber compounds trap air bubbles when mixed, they must be cured inside a vacuum chamber. The chamber removes the trapped air bubbles, strengthens the mold, and improves its clarity.
