Made from natural cork granules mixed with nylon. Birko-Cork is porous,
lightweight, flexible, and thermopliable. It is economical in use, since leftovers from
one job can be kneaded together for future use. Heat to 175°F, it becomes pliable but not sticky.
Heat to 212°F, it becomes slightly sticky and is good for molding. Heat to 250°F, it becomes sticky
and is excellent for molding and adheres
well to other materials.
