Cutting your own vulcanised rubber moulds starts with a frame that holds its shape under heat and pressure. This single-cavity aluminium frame sits between the platens of a standard jewellery vulcaniser, containing the rubber whilst heat moves evenly through the block — the groundwork for reliable wax injection moulds for small and medium cast components.

The block is solid aluminium with machined flat faces, so clamping pressure spreads uniformly and mould thickness comes out consistent. The internal corners of the rectangular cavity are radiused to ease stress on the finished mould, and at 4" × 4-7/8" with a 5/8" depth it accommodates most standard jewellery models.

  • Solid aluminium block construction for even heat distribution during vulcanization.
  • Single rectangular cavity with radiused internal corners to reduce stress on the mould.
  • Machined flat faces ensure consistent pressure and uniform mould thickness.
  • External dimensions of 4" × 4-7/8" fit standard jewellery vulcanizer presses.
  • A 5/8" thickness provides adequate depth for most standard jewellery models.

Who it's for

Primarily for bench jewellers and casting houses in the UK who manage their own rubber mould production for lost-wax casting. Also suitable for model makers and designers creating small-run components who require repeatable wax injections from a durable mould.

Alexander ★★★★★

Bought this to replace a flimsy steel frame that kept bowing on me, and the 5/8 inch aluminium plate hasn't budged through a dozen vulcanising cycles. The 4 x 4-7/8 inch cavity fits my standard rubber blanks perfectly, and it wipes clean with hardly any rubber sticking to the sides.

Daniel Y. ★★★★★

I was worried the aluminium would flex under the heat, but this thing came out of the press dead flat every time. The 4 × 4-7/8 inch single cavity is the perfect size for my pendant moulds and the rubber peels off the metal cleanly.

Joshua ★★★★★

The 5/8 inch thickness keeps the frame from flexing when I crank the press down, which was my main worry with cheaper ones. Rubber came out with clean edges and no flash on the first try.
