SORTA-Clear Series rubbers are premium water white translucent silicone rubbers (platinum catalyst) which cure at room temperature with negligible shrinkage. Sorta Clear 37 has Shore 37A hardness and features high tensile and tear strength. This product also offers the convenience of a 1A:1B by volume mix ratio. SORTA-Clear silicones are ideal for making prototype, jewelry or other molds of any configuration where model visibility is important (i.e.
