I just did a search, I guess I should have ask what kind of rubber is used for grips. I'm looking for something similar to what DYE uses.

I need something I can use for mold injecting...

Any ideas??

a seemingly generic answer but i would check ebay for injection molding equiptment, the stuff isnt exactly cheap (depending on what types you want) so it is probably best to try and get a used one, especially since it seems like you have no experience with it. my uncle does injection molding for a company so ill ask him if he knows what suppliers his company uses.

VERY COOL! Thanks.

Yea this is new to me. Right now the ideas and molds are the easy part, the process and materials will take some reasearch.

E-Bay is an exelent place to start.

Try a company called Smooth-On

http://www.smooth-on.com/

Chances are if they don't have it... you don't need it.

Have fun. I have quite a bit of their products sitting in my shop.

Cool, thanks Sam.

It looks like good place to get started. I haven't found anything else that was much help, looks like a good place for information and supplies.

Any ideas in regard to the injection process/equipment? Everything I've found so far is for large operations.

(will be sending you a PM shortly)
