Are there any other U.S. vendors of 9" and 12" sets of vulcanizing rubber? Romanoff is getting pretty pricy at $15 USD a set. |

We highly recommend Contenti. Their rubber blanks are of the highest quality. We use 3/4 inch thick molds and find that the Contenti 1 inch blanks delaminate the best of any supplier. By delaminating 1/8 inch from each mold half and then combining the removed layers we can get 12-13 molds from each case of 10 – 1 inch molds, thus decreasing the price per mold significantly. The 3/4 inch molds are more flexible and cool faster also.
