Product Description
TC-5050 A/B is a room temperature, addition/platinum curing silicone rubber designed for mold making, encapsulation applications, pressure pads, gaskets, and various types of parts. It is an excellent mold making material for casting low melting metals in continuous operations to 650°F (344°C) and sporadic applications of 850°F (454°C). It is also excellent for casting rigid fast to slow reacting liquid polyurethanes in. Several years of field reports show that TC-5050 A/B remains dimensionally correct maintaining a durable working surface even after large numbers of parts have been cast out of a single mold cavity. TC-5050 A/B molds have also proven to be stable and usable after years of storage.
