Tooling Epoxies
Rudolph Bros. & Co. has been selling epoxies for industrial tooling applications for more than 30 years. Their hands-on experience in the tooling market has allowed Rudolph Bros. to become one of the leading suppliers of epoxy tooling systems. They have an extensive line of products developed solely for demanding tooling applications such as resin transfer molding, vacuum forming, and prototype injection molding. Their product line consists of room temperature and high temperature epoxy surface coats, laminating systems, and casting systems. These epoxies are superior in terms of durability, build speed, tool strength, dimensional stability and precision.
Their surface coats are paste-viscosity resins designed to be applied by brush or squeegee to a model or pattern to function as the surface of the cured tool. They generally possess handling properties that facilitate easy mixing and application, and their cured properties provide a tough, durable surface that can be sanded or scribed with ease.
Their laminating resin systems consist of both unfilled and filled products that are intended for use with reinforcing fabrics to construct high performance composite tooling prototype and/or production parts.
Their casting resins are versatile products that can provide an excellent solution to a variety of industrial applications. They generally contain a filler of some type that is provided to produce specific handling or cured properties. These fillers can be of a metallic nature, or of a variety of non-metal fillers. The specific fillers can provide lower shrinkage, higher compressive strengths, better metal forming properties, or other characteristics suited to a particular use. A variety of systems, for both room temperature as well as high temperature service are available.
