Silicone Rubber
Silicone Rubber Mold Making and Casting |  | | These are two-component, room temperature cure, silicone molding compounds. Silicones are noted for their ease of application and high durability. They come in a hardness range of Shore A8 to A28 Silicone rubber is used most often for casting for polyester, epoxy, polyurethane, masonry, gypsum and wax. No release agents are needed. Our tin-cured silicone systems are the most economical. They are best used for casting resins and low melt metals. Our platinum-cured silicone systems will provide the highest performance. They too are best for casting resins and low-melt metals. However, our LifeRite is a skin-safe silicone ideally suited for life casting. | | Above: Master mold maker Michael Kryger opens a block mold of MoldRite 25 silicone rubber to remove a figurine cast in EZCast casting resin. In the fore ground sits a casting created with FXRite silicone rubber as a mold. Prior to casting the mold was sprayed with black lacquer and then cast with EZCast Resin. After demolding the resin chemically bonded with the lacquer (the lacquer also prolongs mold life) to leave a clean mold and a black casting which was dry brushed in gold to complete the finished look. | | Click This Link To Learn How To:Make Silicone Rubber Molds |
