Description
Sugru is the exciting new air-curing rubber that can be formed by hand. It bonds to most materials and turns into a strong, flexible silicone rubber overnight.
Developed by a team of product designers and materials scientists, Sugru’s patented technology is unique in its combination of hand-formability, self-adhesion and flexibility when cured. It feels like modelling clay, and it’s that easy to use too. Once cured, its durable properties mean it’s comfortable in extreme environments from the dishwasher to the ocean to Antarctica.
Sugru feels like modelling clay when you remove it from its pack, but once exposed to air, it cures to a soft-touch silicone rubber. Use it to pimp pliers, add tactile grips to kitchen utensils, fix cracked and broken toys, repair flexible things such as cables and leaky trainers, give iPhones protective ‘shock bumpers’ and even customise handlebars and gear levers. The possibilities are truly endless.
Phenomenally durable, completely waterproof (even in sea water) and impervious to extreme temperature (from -60°C to +180°C), Sugru is set to become a household name alongside Sellotape, Super Glue and Blu-Tack.
It’s even dishwasher proof.

Resistant from -60 °C to + 180 °C. It gets hot and cold but it won't get softer or harder or melt.
Self-adhesive: It forms a strong bond to aluminium, steel, ceramics, glass and other materials including plastics like perspex.
Waterproof: sugru is silicone, so it's completely
waterproof and durable outdoors. It's easy to clean with soap and water, oh and
it's fine with sea water too!
Flexible: When sugru cures, it's flexible rather than
rigid. Which means that you can repair things that need to be able to move like
textiles, cables, or shoes.
Dishwasher proof: Once it's cured, sugru is pretty much like other silicones - durable in the harsh soapy conditions of your washing machine and dishwasher.
Once cured, you can remove it with a craft knife and then remove residue with fingernails and tissue paper.
