You should expect about 0.15% shrinkage with Vacuum Casting Material. This is common with polyurethane resins and elastomers. If you do not think about shrinkage, your parts may not fit. They might also not work as you want. Plan for shrinkage before you start making parts. This helps you get accurate results. Polyurethane resins and elastomers are popular. They have shrinkage rates you can predict.
