Product Description
FOAM-iT!™ 10 SLOW
Smooth-On’s FOAM-iT!™ Series are two-component water blown rigid foams that are versatile and easy to use. FOAM-iT!™ products are available in 3lb., 4 lb., 5 lb., 8 lb., 10 lb.,15 lb. or 26 lb. per cubic foot densities. Parts A and B are measured and mixed in equal amounts by volume. The mixture is then poured into a mold or other form (apply release agent if necessary). The mixture will expand many times original volume (depending on which FOAM-iT!™ product you are using) and develop a uniform cell structure. FOAM-iT!™ 10 SLOW is a 10 lb. density foam with a long, 3.5 minute working time, taking 1 hour to reach handling strength and 4 hours to cure. FOAM-iT!™ 10 SLOW is designed for large-pour industrial, art-related and special effects applications.
FOAM-iT!™ products can be used as a straight casting material, backfill material for hollow castings (adds structural strength) or as an encapsulation material, etc. They can be color pigmented with SO-Strong™, UVO™ or IGNITE™ colorants and are used for a variety of art/ craft, industrial design and special effects applications.
EpoxAcast™ 650 + 103 Hardener
EpoxAcast™ 650 is a mineral filled general purpose casting epoxy resin that is low cost and versatile. It features a low mixed viscosity for minimal bubble entrapment. EpoxAcast™ 650 is used for making hard dies for metal stamping as well as patterns and fixtures. It is also used for electrical encapsulation to extend the life cycles and enhance the performance of potted electronic devices. The high compressive strength of EpoxAcast™ 650 makes it ideal for making stamping dies for production pressing of metal ornaments.
