CHT Group QM 258 60 Shore A, Addition Cure Moldmaking Material
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Silicone

Material Notes: Product Description: QM 258 is a two-component, room temperature, addition cure, silicone material. The cured rubber has excellent mechanical properties and good shelf-life stability. This material is a good choice for the molding of furniture, picture frames and architectural materials. QM 258 is exceptionally good where high durometer and dimensional stability are required.

Key Features:

  • High durometer
  • Casting resin resistance Fast demold time
  • Excellent dimensional stability
  • ROHS compliant; contains no regulated compounds
Main Applications:
  • Rubber roller production
  • Molds for architectural replication
  • Molds for polyester, epoxy resin casting, and rigid or foam polyurethane
  • Molds for technical articles and prototypes
  • Molds for furniture and picture frame replication

Formerly Amber Chemical Co (ACC Silicones), aquired by CHT in 2017
