Rubber Bands for Ceramic Molds

    Dogwood Ceramic Supply's Industrial Grade Rubber Bands are perfect for Ceramic Molds.  The natural rubber breaths and prevents moisture from being trapped under the band.  Industrial grade rubber bands are made in America and are packaged in 1 pound boxes of a single size of rubber bands.

Industrial Grade Rubber Bands are packed in 25 lb cases of one size per case.

 

 

    Rubber Bands are measured along the flat length when the two ends of the band are pinched together.  The measurement from end to end equals the flat length.  (If you were to cut one end of the band unfold it, the flat length would be approximately half the overall length)  The width of the band is measured perpendicular to the flat length.  Rubber Bands can stretch up to 7 times the length of the unstressed length of the rubber band.
    Dogwood Ceramic Supply recommends rubber bands for strapping most small molds.  As the mold size increases, the quantity of slip also increases, and greater stress is placed on the band to hold the mold tight during casting.  For moderate sized molds (above 20 lbs or holding more than 1 quart of slip) Dogwood Ceramic Supply recommends the use of mold straps.
