Room for the part
you have in mind.
A small component or a substantial molding. Here are the working numbers from Urethane Systems Plus.
USP also states an approximate Young's Modulus range of 200 to 1000 psi. These are the manufacturer's published ranges. Ask about the material and tolerances for your application.
Less pressure.
More possibilities
in the mold.
Reaction injection molding brings polyol and isocyanate together inside a mold. Low pressure and low heat allow a wider choice of mold materials, which can dramatically reduce tooling costs.
Multiple wall thicknesses.Low pressure / low heat
Over 20 years of RIM experience goes into the details: chemistry, clamping forces, and cure times. Lean manufacturing supports short lead times and just-in-time delivery.
Built for small to mid-level volumes
From prototype to production
Skin from
the mold.
i-Skin forms its protective outer layer during molding. The tooling can imprint the surface pattern, adding a flexible, tear-resistant skin to the polyurethane foam beneath.
Surface properties depend on the formulation and application. Discuss the requirements of your part with USP.
The chemistry
gets a workout.
USP makes Soft Touch® Bases. For over 30 years, the brand has supplied baseball and softball bases for youth leagues through college and adult organizations.
Soft Touch describes itself as the only USA-based manufacturer of disengageable bases. Its patented Progressive Release design flexes and releases under pressure.
“Softer than
leather,
stronger
than rubber.”
Soft Touch's description of its Pro-Style Base. A real application of polyurethane, made by Urethane Systems Plus.
