These Tin Based, Silicone RTV's are intended primarily for puppet skins and flexible rubber parts.  They are translucent for easier pigmentation, and produce a rubber part with excellent physical properties and superb shelf-life.  Features:

  • High Tear Resistant Strength
  • Low Viscosity for Easy Pouring
  • Easily Paintable with D-3430 SP Silicone Paint
  • FX Flocking Fibers Available for adding realistic Texture and Coloring
  • Silicone Pigments Available for Coloring
  • Brush On Catalyst Quick Cure Available R-1300TH SP B
  • Pour Mold Catalyst Quick Cure Available R-1310 SP B

Mixing Instructions:

These systems are blended together by adding the B side component at the specified Mix Ratio.  The addition of catalyst (by weight)  has a pot life of 45-60 minutes.  Since the B side (catalyst) is clear a thorough and complete mix is best achieved by mixing in two containers--transferring from the first mix to the second container and remixing.  De-airing (degassing) is always recommended for optimal results.  After material has been poured, allow 24 hours for it to develop its maximum mechanical strength.    

Quick Cures:  Use Catalyst R-1310 SP B when Poured or R-1300th SP B for Brush-On.  These fast cure catalysts will reduce material Gel and Cure Times: 20 min and 3 hours, and will not affect the physical properties over the short time as will using the Rapid Set Additive.

Softening Agent:  F-100 Thinner can be used to adjust skin hardness (Durometer).  Gels can be created by adding high levels 100-200%.  Add F-100 fluid to the Silicone RTV mix.  The addition of 10-15% fluid will lower the hardness by 5-10 durometer points.

The information and data contained herein are based on information we believe reliable.  Each use of the material shoud test any application and independently conclude satisfactory performance before commercializing.  Suggestions of uses should not be taken as inducements to infringe on any particular patent.
