Urethane Rtv Casting

Urethane RTV Casting Process
We start the process with a master pattern.  The master pattern is used to make a silicone mold and liquid urethane material is then forced into the mold, before curing usually in a few hours.
Urethane Room Temperature Vulcanization (RTV) casting is a great way to create high-aesthetic, functional parts in a production equivalent material quickly and economically before proceeding to production tooling. 
​The result is a production-like, cost effective part for low-volume situations such as beta testing and bridge tooling.
Advantages of Urethane Casting
  • Accurately mimic production materials and finishes
  • Large material selection – rigid, flexible, durable and clear
  • Offers similar physical properties to injection molded parts
  • Used for pre-production runs
  • Parts made for marketing samples and functional prototypes
  • Low-volume manufacturing
