F40

F40 is the intermediate product between F20 and F50, it is more resistant than the F50 and harder than F20, allowing you to cut it with the Double Blade Cutter.

The final impression can handle higher extraction stress, up to 35%. The F40’s impressions are both precise and elastic, capturing all shape details with a micron accuracy.

This is a product designed for extremely difficult-to-extract impressions requiring the use of the Double Blade Cutter. For this reason, it should only be used in specific cases.

Despite significant deformation during extraction, it maintains its captured dimensions without leaving any trace in the controlled area. This plastiform is a great alternative if you cannot use F50 and need a product compatible with the Double Blade Cutter (which F20 is not).

F40 is a good fit for the following applications:

  • Dimensional control of highly complex internal shapes. This Plastiform is design to take impressions very hard to extract while still being cuttable by the Double Blade Cutter easily.

F40 is slightly thicker than other Plastiform fluids. As with other products in the fluid range, it is recommended to use a tip with the injector when applying F40.

If the flow is too slow, you can cut the tip to increase the flow rate without making handling more difficult.

When applying a Plastiform product, especially F40, inject it slowly to avoid creating air bubbles.

Always remember this is a very specific product that should require an expertise from a Plastiform Expert before being used.
