Embedding capsule substitute

This 24 cavity mould produces a block similar to the embedding capsule block but with the following advantages: Resin polymerises better in silicone rubber than in polypropylene or polyethylene - the rubber heats more evenly and retains the heat better than in plastic.

• It is easier to see inside the well when centring the specimen in the tip
• It is easier to remove the block from the well. There is no need for razor blades or press devices
• The finished blocks have finer tips so when you trim deeper into the block the face doesn't increase in size rapidly; therefore, constant retrimming is not necessary
