GI-1040 Tin-Based Silicone Rubber
$160.00 – $650.00
GI-1040 is a high tear strength, tin-catalyzed RTV-2 silicone rubber, which was designed for casting polyurethane foam parts. GI-1040 has a Shore A Hardness of 40, giving it the ability to resist distortion due to the expansion of the foam. GI-1040 is not sensitive to inhibition, meaning it will cure at room temperature over virtually any surface. It is easy to mix and de- air, and will cure with only a slight degree of shrinkage. The speed at which the rubber hardens can be accelerated with special activators. GI-1040 is also excellent for casting solid urethanes, polyesters and epoxies where a free standing mold that can maintain a straight edge is required.

As the cutting edge teaching facility, Anglers Artistry has to work with the best products and the best partners who care about the industry of taxidermy! Back in 1985 I took the opportunity to attend a 2 week workshop on molding parts un-related to taxidermy and walked away with the new product that would change how I create and, since we started teaching in 1991, how we teach!
I have been so excited to become a distributor for the taxidermy industry and as leader in the teaching of the “HOW-TOO’S” of products for the every day taxidermists it is our partnership with Silicone Inc that will continue to bring new innovations to you the artist!
