Due to their high strength and flexibility, these mold making silicone
rubbers are especially useful in art foundry applications such as in lost wax
casting of sculpture.
Silastic® 3481 and 3483 (in Europe and in Asia) and Dow Corning® HS II and
HS III (in the US) are recommended for this application because of their high
strength and their flexibility.
Product Selection
Selecting the right moldmaking material is often a difficult task. Nature,
complexity and selected material for the replicas must be taken into account.
Information in the Product Finder will help guide your selection. The final
decision on products and additives can often be made only after practical
tests.

the art foundry market, please refer to related
