Svampkuler 10mm (10)

Attributes: Foam rubber is a blown spongy-porous open-celled rubber that is produced from natural rubber (NR). Its good compressibility and elasticity, its ability to absorb and its surface adhesion all combine to guarantee that this oldest of all the blown rubber materials still finds many uses today.

Applications: Balls made of sponge rubber are actually used for cleaning pipes and tubes. They are also very popular, however, as representations of TREE CROWNS in architectural model making or also for use in the making of jewellery.

Treatment: Sponge rubber balls when used as treetops can be stuck on to a section of ABS tube (diameter of 1.2 or 1.6 mm) or round brass pieces to serve as trunks. It is of course easier just to stick them on STICKPINS or nails.
