FIGURE 4® RUBBER-BLK 10

OVERVIEW

Figure 4® RUBBER-BLK 10 Is A High-Tear Strength Material Used To Manufacture Hard Rubber-Like Components With A Stagnant Rebound For Use In Contact Applications Such As Grips, Handles, And Bumpers, As Well As Strain-Relief Applications Such As Couplings And Over Molding. This Very Durable Material Has A Superb Surface Polish And A Long Life In The Environment.

APPLICATIONS

• The slow-rebound hard-rubber material is ideal for a variety of contact applications, such as grips, handles, and bumpers.
• Excellent for strain-relief applications
• Over moldings and couplings
• Parts for production that need long-term environmental stability and have compatible mechanical qualities

BENEFITS

• Outstanding surface finish
• Extremely durable material
• Ideal for applications requiring a delicate touch
• Engineered to maintain environmental stability over the long term

FEATURES

• Superior tearing strength
• 59D and 97A shore hardness
• Robust and enduring
• ISO10993-5 and ISO10993-10 certified as biocompatible

MATERIAL PROPERTIES

Where relevant, the complete set of mechanical characteristics is provided in accordance with ASTM and ISO standards. All components are conditioned for a minimum of 40 hours at 23 °C and 50% relative humidity in accordance with ASTM recommendations. Physical and mechanical qualities, as well as thermal, UL flammability, and electrical properties, are all included in material properties (dielectric strength, dielectric constant, dissipation factor, and volume resistivity).

ISOTROPIC PROPERTIES

Figure 4 technology creates isotropic components, which means that items printed along either the XYZ or Z axis will have equivalent mechanical qualities. Because parts do not need to be orientated to provide the best mechanical characteristics, the degree of freedom for part orientation for mechanical qualities is increased.
