V-3040
June 2001
PRELIMINARY TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
V-3040 is a two component, high strength, addition cure, room
temperature or heat accelerated cure silicone
rubber compound. Designed specifically for moldmaking, It is an ideal
rubber for reproducing intricate detail,
and maintaining close tolerances. This material has IMPROVED POLYURETHANE
resistance. It is an
excellent choice for pattern shop, model shop and stereolithography
service bureau moldmaking or tooling
applications.
