RIGID POLYURETHANE FOAM PROMASTER SERIE

PROFOAM 5518  is a tough, durable, lightweight, closed cell polyurethane tooling board product intended for uses in the signing industry, mould and foundry patterns and in composite tooling applications where a uniform, grain-free, dimensionally stable substrate is desired for interior & exterior uses. The PROFOAM 5518  is both water and fire-retardant resistant.

CHARACTERISTICS

  • Special formulation allows creation of chips when material is machined 
  • Anti-Static additive causes shavings and particles to fall on the floor, no dust in the air! 
  • Excellent consistency and uniformity throughout the entire mass of material 
  • Fine cell structure allows easy finishing with almost any resin or coating system…great finish. 
  • No glass-bead fillers to damage cutting tools-this material cut with HSS cutters! 
  • Reliable dimensional stability. Resistant to warp & decomposing.
  • Large sheets (48″ x 96″), thickness 1’’,2’’,3’’ and 4’’ in stock (up to 12″) can be available upon demand. Can create 3D effect for the signing industry. SEE POLYMERES COMPANY’S SIGN.
