Hapflex,Ñ¢ 500 Series High Performance Hybrid Elastomeric Polymer Alloy, specifically part number 580, is designed for applications requiring flexible and durable materials. This product features a hardness range of 45 to 95 Shore A, making it suitable for a variety of uses, including precision tracing patterns, instrument grips, gaskets, and flexible parts. The elastomer exhibits medium-low viscosity, facilitating easy handling and pouring while ensuring precise detail replication. It is noted for its shock resistance and durability, which prevents cracking or chipping during use or storage. The material can cure at room temperature, with accelerated curing possible through moderate heat, enhancing cycle times. Additionally, it performs well in low-temperature environments, making it a versatile choice for engineers seeking reliable elastomeric solutions.
HIGH PERFORMANCE HYBRID ELASTOMERIC POLYMER ALLOYS
The Hapflex™ 500 Series offers soft durometer elastomers ranging from 45 - 95 Shore A. All are relatively fast, room curing, flexible systems that can be accelerated with moderate heat for faster cycle times. Most 500 Series products are available in a slower speed (20-45 min.) when hand mixing, or a faster speed (3-6 min.) for use with Hapco’s dispensing equipment.
All Hapflex™ elastomers are medium-low viscosity, making them easy to handle and pour, yet still provide precise duplications of surface details.
In addition, the Hapflex™ elastomers are virtually shock resistant and unbreakable, making them exceptionally well suited for permanent molds or parts that will not crack or chip during use or storage. A major advantage is their performance in low temperatures.
Precision tracing patterns, instrument grips, gaskets, fixtures, and flexible parts and molds are just a few applications of the Hapflex™ 500 Series.
