Data sheets
Base rubber for making printing pads.
ELASTOSIL® RT 623 A/B KR has been specially designed as a base material for making printing pads.
The vulcanizate’s high mechanical strength and long term stability of hardness make ELASTOSIL® RT 623 A/B KR an ideal base material for producing printing pads with excellent mechanical properties and long service life.
Important note:
The platinum catalyst is in component B.
Important:
A and B components may only be used together if they have the same batch number.
To ensure both optimum flow and homogeneity of the material, the components must be stirred thoroughly before they are removed or processed in their containers, in order to uniformly disperse any fillers that might have settled during storage.
Dilution charts:
The following table shows the hardness of ELASTOSIL® RT 623 A/B as a function of the added amount of Wacker Silicone Fluid AK 35 for Durometer Types Shore A and Shore 00.
