A soft and rubber-like material, exclusive for Origin®, engineered for demanding applications that require excellent tear resistance, elongation, chemical resilience, and lasting mechanical properties across a broad temperature range. With Shore A hardness of 25 it strikes a balance between softness and strength, making it well-suited for 3D printing seals, gaskets, and select components in wearable and consumer products.
Certified for FR/FST and cytotoxicity
High tear resistance, excellent strength and rebound
Superior thermal stability, also after at min 1000 hours
For fine features with excellent surface finish
Seals & Gaskets
Industrial machinery components
Vibration cushioning
End-of-arm-tooling soft grippers
Silicones are specified for components that must maintain elasticity, sealing force, and durability through repeated compression, vibration, and environmental exposure. Thermal aging however, can change the mechanical properties of silicone and other elastomers, directly affecting their functional performance and potential service life.
Aging tests show that after 1,000 hours at 150°C (300°F), P3™ Silicone 25A retained substantially more of its original mechanical properties than the alternative commercially available 3D printing silicone tested:
With the characteristic performance and behavior of silicones, P3 Silicone 25A is engineered for applications requiring exceptional tear resistance, elongation, chemical resilience, and long-lasting mechanical properties over a wide temperature range.
