BJB Enterprises FD-70 REV 1 A/B

BJB Enterprises FD-70 REV 1 A/B is a series of semi rigid, fast reacting urethane elastomers exhibit great flexibility and excellent durability. These tough, abrasion resistant systems easily process at room temperature and range in hardness from 50 Shore D to 70 Shore D. The FD Series offers superior performance in many applications such as rollers, foundry tooling and high impact semi rigid parts. For longer work times consider BJB’s MD Series of elastomers.

CURE SCHEDULE/HEAT CURING:

Most of the physical properties can be achieved in 5-7 days at 77°F (25°C). You may use your own post-cure schedule but the physical properties may vary from BJB’s cure schedule of 1-3 hours at 77°F (25°C) followed by 16 hours at 160°F (71°C). Do not exceed curing temperature of 200°F (93°C).

PREPARATION AND RELEASING:

When FD-70 REV 1 A/B is used to produce molds or parts from plaster, wood or other porous substrates, we would first recommend that they be sealed. Release agents may then be applied over the sealed surface.

ACCESSORIES:

BJB offers silicone RTV mold making materials along with a wide range of accessory items. These include de-airing agents, pigments, mold releases, and Jiffy® Mixers. Visit BJB’s website at www.bjbenterprises.com or consult a BJB representative for more information.
