Pattern Materials from SP-High Modulus

EPOXY TOOLING PASTE
T-Paste 70-2 has been designed for marine customers looking for a fast and reliable way to manufacture patterns and direct moulds. T-Paste 70-2 is a low density tooling paste designed for the manufacture of patterns in the boatbuilding market. It has been formulated for ease of application and to give an excellent surface finish when CNC machined.

T-Paste 70-2 can be applied directly to expanded polystyrene (EPS) and is very low exotherm and shrinkage when applied at thicknesses up to 40mm. This allows the paste to be applied in one operation over large areas. T-Paste 70-2 can be CNC machined after a 1 day cure at an ambient temperature of 21°C and has outstanding Health and Safety; no smell or volatiles when applied and forms chippings when machined.

The combination of fillers used in T-Paste 70-2 provide a paste that gives high cut definition in detail areas (no breakout on edges) and patterns with a good level of toughness for transport/movement between mould shops.
