Mould like clay, then leave to harden. The result is silicone rubber!

Things can only get better? Too true because fixing, customising and improving everyday items just got a whole lot easier thanks to Sugru. This miraculous flexible compound is designed to stick to as many different materials as possible and forms a strong bond to aluminium, steel, ceramics, glass and much more.

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.


Make your own iPhone 'shock bumpers'		Mould an exact grip		Fix your old toy

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. We were about to say you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it, but that’s a conked out cliché even Sugru can’t fix. Go on, stick it, mould it, fix it, hack it!

More Info

Features:

Use at room temperature
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

Hiya, does this come off again after it has 'cured'? I think it could be perfect to mould a comfortable grip on my rifle, but I would need to be able to take it off as it may not be allowed at competitions. Thanks :).
Jess, Isle Of Man - 27th February 2012

Firebox says: Hey Jess, I can happily confirm that once cured, you can remove Sugru with a craft knife and then remove residue with fingernails and tissue paper.

How easy would this be to remove from plastic pipe work? Would it seal small leaks(tiny drips).
Bradley, Bedfordshire - 26th November 2011

Firebox says: We haven't tried that application yet ourselves, but after a bit of successful Googling I have found many case studies of people who have done that with a fair bit of success.

Hi! Sugru is truly AMAZING!!! I first saw sugru on Firebox, and used up the whole of my 'smart pack black', and liked it so much that I bought a super pack mixed colours, and I had half of the pack, and my freind had the other half! I went to the Gadget show live this year (2011) and I saw the brilliant firebox stand, my friend who I shared the sugru with was the first person to win a angry bird on your 'piggy shy' game!!! I went to Sugru's stand as well and met Jane, the creator of sugru!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have 2 questions 1. Can this be used to make custom lego helmets/weapons 2. Can it be painted.
Mr.X, Somewhere - 15th November 2011

Firebox says: This can certainly be used to make custom hats, helmets, arms, legs, well anything (you can even make lego blocks if you really wanted!. Sugro is not designed to be painted, you can try on small patches and see if it adheres!

Could you create a phone stand with it? and it would stay the shape forever? and is there enough.
Jess, United Kingdom - 28th October 2011

Firebox says: Hi Jess, you should be able to make a phone stand with it. It's not indestructible, but it should certainly hold the shape sturdily. Whether or not there's enough of it depends on how you're planning to design your phone stand, but you get 6 sachets in a smart pack, 12 sachets in a super pack, and each sachet contains a lump of sugru approximately half the size of a ping pong ball. So that's one phone stand divided by 6 ping pong balls......... We'll leave the maths to you!

I've read that this stuff is sea-water proof. Would I be able to patch a hole in a ship if I had enough of it?
Edward J. Smith, Hanley, England - 14th October 2011

Firebox says: You'd have to have a great deal to patch up a hole in a ship Edward! We wouldn't recommend it though...

I've just got out of hospital and I must say Sugru is brilliant at decorating things, such as leg casts that you need after. E.g. Ignoring safety warnings.
Sam Lake, UK - 14th October 2011

Firebox says: Bet you have the coolest leg cast going Sam!

Absolutely fab stuff. We used it to stick our gas fire legs onto the marble hearth as they kept slipping about! Have stuck the legs, arms and ears back on my daughters school clay project. Filled in a chip in our mottled grey slate effect laminate floor, em can't think of anything else, BUT IT'S FAB!!! Each piece is about the size of a stick of chewing gum.
The Fat Rat, Newtownards - 14th October 2011

Firebox says: Glad you like it!!

Can sugru be used to patch stuff up made out of sugru? This sugru thing I've made as started to tear and I'm wondering if sticking sugru to it will help.
Simon, United Kingdom - 24th September 2011

Firebox says: Sugru will work with pretty much anything including Sugro!

If I was out flying my plane when all of a sudden it developed engine trouble and I had to bail out, if I had forgotten to pack a parachute, could I use sugru to make a protective cushion on my feet to protect me?
Sam Lake, UK - 19th September 2011

Firebox says: For all the qualities of Sugru, we wouldn't place our life in it's hands in that scenario!
