P25 is a product specially developed for making highly complex total impressions in areas requiring a non-flowing product.
It’s a pasty product, which means it doesn’t run, enabling it to be applied to vertical or overhanging surfaces.
The final impression is highly flexible (25 Shore A), able to deform on demolding and accept extraction stresses of up to 30%.
P25 is particularly recommended for creating full internal cavities in small-diameter through bores. It’s injected by compression, and its high elongation capacities enables it to be removed even from very complexe shapes.
It can also be used to create partial replicas on highly complex external shapes, such as T-slots, grooves or notches.
As with every plastiform, the impression is extremely precise, reproducing every detail (shape, dimension, appearance, surface finish, etc.) to micron (µm) accuracy.
This impression can be cut with the Double Blade Cutter to obtain a profile of the replica, considerably improving the ease of measurement.
The P25 is used for the following application:
Dimensional control: P25 is suitable for highly complex impressions in areas requiring a non-flowing product.
P25 is easy to apply — just follow the instructions for use.
Note that this product is a pasty plastiform, so, using a tip with the nozzle is not recommended.
Before taking an impression, it’s mandatory to degrease the part with a validated degreaser or contact cleaner. We recommends the DN1 for this purpose, as it has been validated for use on control areas.
Looking for a complete kit to try plastiform?
The case contains all required accessories to use Plastiform. It is the best way to try our solutions for the first time!
Are all products compatible with the Double Blade Cutter ?
No. The double blade cutter can only cut semi-flexible impressions. You can check on the label and the technical sheet if the product you are interest in is usable with the Cutter.
Are Plastiform products compatible with all types of metal alloys?
We always recommend carrying out a preliminary test to confirm that your alloy will not adhere to the product, as we have observed several cases of incompatibility with very specific alloys, although this is very rare.
Are the product or the chemical reaction dangerous?
All our products can be used safely without the need for protective equipment.
How should products be stored?
Products must always be stored between 15°C and 28°C, in their original packaging, and with the cap facing upwards. Cartridge plastiforms have a shelf life of up to 3 years, which remains unchanged even after they are opened. For more detailed information, please consult the technical data sheets.
What are nozzles and tips used for?
The nozzle should be attached at the end of the cartridge, ensures that the two components of the plastiform mix homogeneously before application. It is a consumable item and must be replaced after each use. The tip, which is fitted at the end of the nozzle, reduces the flow rate. This is particularly recommended for fluid plastiforms to achieve optimal application accuracy, especially in fine details. The tip is reusable and can be cut to increase the flow if needed.
What does “working time” means?
The "Working time" is the period during which a Plastiform can be altered after injection, maintaining its initial consistency. This means that the chemical reaction between the two components has not yet progressed to the point where the impression begins to harden.
What does “curing time” means?
The "curing time" is the period after which the impression can be removed from the part following its injection. This is when the impression has achieved approximately 80% of its final hardness, enabling its removal from the form to be replicated.
What does “polymerization time” means?
The "polymerization time" is the time required for the impression to reach its final hardness, such as 20 Shore A for F20, 50 Shore A for F50, etc. This indicates when the impression is fully usable, particularly for precise dimensional measurements.
What do the colors of the products represent?
The colour of the product is only a visual indicator that allows products to be easily distinguished.
What is the purpose of the Double Blade Cutter?
The Cutter has been specially developed to facilitate the use of Plastiform impressions. It allows a slice to be cut in the axis of an impression in order to exploit its profile more easily on optical measuring instruments. It is customizable according to your needs.
