General Information

P-44 is excellent for mold making where visual inspection is desired. Moderate durometer with superb physical properties, excellent release and chemical resistance. Two activators available, A-1 for casting fill, pigmented parts (has a slight oily feel) and A-2 for casting clear urethanes.
