Cast Urethanes/RTV Molding (Polyurethanes)
Cast Urethanes, RTV Molding, or Polyurethanes (Polys) all refer to a low volume production method that produces parts from a Polyurethane plastic material for prototyping purposes.
These parts have material properties similar to production like plastics. It is possible to make these parts appear just like hard tooled plastic parts by means of surface finish, color, accuracy, and material properties.
Cast Urethanes are ideal for marketing samples, test prototypes or other situations where few (1-100) pieces are required but time and money does not allow an injection-molding tool to be produced.
