HIGH PERFORMANCE HYBRID ELASTOMERIC POLYMER ALLOYS
The Hapflex™ 1000 Series products are soft, colorless, Shore A elastomers. These materials are available in both a fast and slow gel time and can also be combined to yield customized gel times without the addition of heat.
Hapflex™ 1000 Series products are available in a 25, 35 and 55A hardness, but can be blended together to produce other Durometers. For example: mixing the 1036(35A) and 1056(55A) B sides and the averaging the mixing ratio will yield a hardness of 45A. Contact a Hapco representative for more information.
The Hapflex™ 1000 Series is colorless and will take pigments very well; however, because of its chemistry, only “MP” color dispersions should be used. These have been specially formulated for use with the 1000 series and can be found on the Color Dispersion page.
Hapflex™ 1000 Series products are used in both Liquid Molding applications (i.e. parts, gaskets, molds) and electrical insulation applications (i.e. potting and encapsulating).
