Elkem LSR-4340 Silicone Elastomer (A-223-40)

A-223-40 (LSR 4340) Liquid Silicone Rubber – Shore A 40

A-223-40 is part of the Elkem LSR 4300 Series, a platinum-cure liquid silicone rubber designed for liquid injection molding (LIM) and precision applications requiring enhanced strength, durability, and structural integrity. With a Shore A 40 durometer, it offers a firmer elastomer while maintaining good flexibility and resilience.

This two-part, 100% solids system is supplied as a pumpable, colorless, translucent paste. When Parts A and B are mixed in a 1:1 ratio, the material cures via addition-cure (platinum) chemistry to form a tough, optically clear elastomer with excellent mechanical performance.
