nOnce completely cured, Weicon Plastic Metal ST sets hard. Tests conducted in accordance with DIN 53281-83 requirements found that fully cured Plastic Metal SD had a hardness of 80 Shore D, a compressive strength of 80 MPa and a mean tensile strength of 27 MPa. n nThis grade of plastic metal is grey in coloured once cured and is used in applications where temperatures are between -35ºC and 120ºC.
