  • Composite molding
  • Prototype Molding
  • Reproduction Molding
Application Details
  • Due to its outstanding resistance to casting resins as well as its superior mechanical properties ELASTOSIL® M 4670 A/B is perfectly suitable for all molds of models with undercuts that are to be reproduced in casting resins, and a certain inherent rigidity of the molds is required.
  • As a medium-Shore addition-curing RTV-2 silicone rubber that cures without undergoing dimensional shrinkage, ELASTOSIL® M 4670 A/B is also extremely suitable for casting all other common reproduction materials, particularly if absolutely accurate copies of models with undercuts are required.

Processing

Important note:

  • The platinum catalyst is in component A.
  • A and B components may only be used together if they have the same batch number.

Safety & Health

Safety Note

Components of the addition-curing grade ELASTOSIL® M 4670 A/B contain only constituents that over many years have proved to be neither toxic nor aggressive. Special handling precautions are therefore not required, i.e., only the general industrial hygiene regulations apply.
